"Suffrage: A Fierce Fight for Equality and Empowerment" In the early 20th century, a wave of change swept through society as women fought tirelessly for their right to vote. Like a suffragette cat with claws sharpened, they scratched and fought against the oppressive forces that denied them their basic rights. Dressed in hats adorned with flags, suffragettes proudly displayed their determination to challenge the status quo.

Through it all, one message rang clear: "I Want My Vote.
