Dr. Banjo My sister was part of the group that fought for the right of girls to wear pants in our schools in our town. There was a time when girls Weren't allowed to wear pants to school. I remember it. It wasn't fun. And we fought to wear pants.

[@thecoldglassofwatershow]

Honestly, I’m all about not wearing pants

[@hithere9304]

I remember having to watch this in school. It hits differently after voting for the first time, and truly understanding the struggles they had to fight for.

[@michaelalexanderruiz]

I listened to this in history class so long ago and it still hits hard

[@UtenaXenite]

Harry T Burn, the man in the video who changed his vote, was my great uncle. His mother, my great grandmother, wrote him that note in his pocket to encourage him to do the right thing. There's a statue of the two in my hometown that says: "Every vote counts Every letter or phone call counts One more person doing the right thing can make all the difference" That story, the story of doing the right thing for others even when it is hard, has inspired so much of who I am. I will forever be grateful. This music video still makes me tear up after all of these years. I'm so grateful for its creators.

[@kimberleyjackson]

I learned something new today from you. So thank you so much for that! :)

[@JohnSmithAnythingChannel]

Wow, that's so awesome! I'm glad you were able to find this video!

[@kgs2280]

Thank you for your comment. That’s some great family history. Kudos to them both! I also got a tear in my eyes when I thought of what those women went through, not only for themselves but for us! We stand on their shoulders, and we also have our own fight today. I only ask that the ERA get put into the Constitution in my lifetime, but it’s not looking like that’s going to happen (I’m 73). I will continue to fight for as long as I’m able.

[@ruthmorrisson4404]

That is just AWESOME! What an amazing bit of family history! I think my mother (who wouldn't have particularly liked the music) would have approved of this video if she'd ever seen it -- when I was a kid she would bring me into the voting booth with her, like my dad with with my brother). Because she was raised that VOTING IS IMPORTANT! And I remember the first time she ever voted a split ticket, instead of just pulling the big GOP lever -- it would have been in the mid to late 1970s, when the "Right to Life" party was moving in on judgeships in NYS. And she was going "OMG -- I do NOT want those people anywhere NEAR the bench! Hmmm --- Republican line, Conservative Party line, RtL party line..." And voted for the Democrat in EVERY JUDICIAL RACE (If my MAGAhat cousin ever heard that she did that -- and the reason why? His brain would explode....)

[@kgs2280]

I also find it interesting that many people today think it was so long ago, but, to me, because I’m 73, remind myself that my own mother was already five years old when women got the vote. Doesn’t seem so long ago when I remember that, .

[@GoddessNeith]

my grandmother was a sufferagist in Cleveland Oh. my grandfather supported her in her quest for the vote.

[@danzo5521]

i know her

[@jfournerat1274]

GoddessNeith your grandfather seems like a very nice guy. He must have really loved your grandmother. That is exactly what a husband or boyfriend should be to their partner ie loving and supportive. I thank him for doing the right thing by supporting your grandmother in her efforts.

[@MsPalomaB]

[@kgs2280]

It is very factual. It even has the Alice Paul character quoting a modified version of the Equal Rights Amendment, and Abigail Adams (wife of John Adams) quote from a letter to her husband: “Remember the Ladies” imploring him to write women into the new Constitution. Sadly, he just laughed at her request. Well done!

[@AshGamer320]

Our social studies teacher showed us this and now it has become a song my whole friend group knows the lyrics to and dances to lol. Thanks for making this, I know I’ll get so much nostalgia from it in the future ❤

[@Treeslawood]

Near the end when all the guys are voting, and the last one votes "yes", and they start fighting you can see him smiling in the background.

[@myvampirediary1]

[@john.l3468]

is this the same people who made the declaration of independence song?

[@angelinema4330]

John Lee the same company, yes.

[@TheRosaNight]

Angeline Ma™ It was actually an issue. Skirts in those days were long and heavy to preserve "modesty", and severely restricted movement; countless women were burned when their skirts caught fire, fell down stairs by tripping on a hem, drowned if they fell in water, and plain couldn't do anything physically active--no sports, or even bike-riding. And any woman who wore sensible clothes, such as trousers, was arrested for cross-dressing. So pants do contribute to progress.

[@angelinema4330]

Rosa Night oh yeah, I do agree. what I mean is that many people might not understand what they mean because the line sounds so sudden. I mean that they should maybe provide some introduction to the "I wanna wear pants!" line so that people can understand that they might take their freedom for granted.

[@FlowerChild65]

Rosa Night Exactly. There was a whole movement around it called rational dress. It started out advocating against the tight lacing of corsets and expanded into other things, bicycle suits, bloomers (not underwear, a sort of precursor to pants), skirts that were above the ankle and easy to move in etc.

[@lunareclipse1864]

The Biden administration is twisting Title IX into a weapon to destroy the integrity of women's athletics (this has been done in Canada look that up and see how it turned out).

I'm very disappointing in the little boys complaining right now. This is a 100 year anniversary tribute boys, get over it please and celebrate with the rest of us.
