NMWH's site leads with an online exhibit that defines the "political culture and imagery of American woman suffrage." A timeline covering the period leading to the passage of the 19th amendment (1840-1919), images of icons and slogans, a bibliography, information on The National Women's History Museum Act of 2003, and a quiz are some of the additional resources.
