November 8, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Lecturer: Marguerite Kearns, author and activist 

An Unfinished Business: Edna Buckman Kearns and the Struggle for Women’s Rights

Marguerite Kearns

Edna Buckman Kearns is best known for her horse-drawn suffrage campaign wagon, called the “Spirit of 1776,” that was used in New York City and Long Island suffrage parades, pageants, and special organizing events. Marguerite (Culp) Kearns—a writer and historian—grew up listening to her grandfather Wilmer Kearns’ stories about her late suffrage activist grandmother Edna Kearns—back when women couldn’t vote and equality seemed like an impossible dream.
