The program was well thought out, was preceded and followed by well-executed videos, and the memorial itself was shown in an inspiring way.
I was personally pleased to see that the old feuds between the activists (Inez Milholland was proud to call herself a suffragette) of the National Woman's Party and the legislation-oriented suffragists in NAWSA were united in their support of the memorial.
Also, it was encouraging to see the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority properly represented. It was originally an offshoot of Alpha Sorority at Howard University. Its twenty-two members were allowed to join the suffrage march in 1913. A century later, the Deltas were the main participants!
Congratulations to Jane Barker and Pat Wirth for pulling this off.
Here's a YouTube video prepared for showing before and after the show.
