August 18, 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment which granted white women the right to vote, and August 6 marks the 55th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 which prohibited racial discrimination in voting. In honor of these anniversaries of suffrage, as well as the passing of John Lewis and the gravity of this election year, we’ve compiled a selection of materials on this topic. This list of ebooks provides critical analysis and covers often-overlooked historical figures and pivotal moments from the women's suffrage movement, the civil rights movement, and present-day voter suppression. This list is by no means exhaustive. We encourage you to search our other ebooks, search our women, and gender studies resources, and of course VOTE! If you have any questions, problems accessing ebooks, or would like help finding more information, please ask a librarian!
