We explore the hot debate over the color line that erupted within San Francisco suffrage in the years preceding America’s first suffrage march in Oakland, California on August 27, 1908. Organized by San Francisco's white suffragists, women’s clubs nationally were crusading for whites-only membership.

Evelyn Rose, PharmD, director and founder of the Glen Park Neighborhoods History Project, has been documenting the activities of Glen Park suffragists and their role in America’s first suffrage march. The Glen Park Neighborhoods History Project is fiscally sponsored by Independent Arts and Media, a California non-profit corporation. For more information, please visit GlenParkHistory.org.
