Mary Walton talks about her new book, A Woman's Crusade: Alice Paul and the Battle for the Ballot. Alice Paul was one of the most important civil rights activists of the 20th century and a pioneer of nonviolent resistance. Her tactics and leadership were crucial to winning passage of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote.
Thank you for your book, your passion, but mostly for telling the world about Alice Paul. Yes, you are so right - she was the Gandhi of the American Women's Movement.
