Stars and Bars




We stumbled across the 9/11 flag touring the country. It is comparable to seeing the Iwo Jima flag, I think. Pretty exciting!

Mr. Phillips




Then
, again, men say, "She is so different from man, that God did not mean
she should vote." Is she?-
Then I do not know how to vote for her.
(Applause.)
One of two things is true. She is either exactly like man,- exactly like him,
totally like him,- and if she is, then a ballot-box based upon brains belongs to her
as well
as him: or she is different, and then I do not know how to vote for her.






Wendell Phillips, National Woman's Rights Convention, 1860
