This year marks the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage here in Idaho. This gave women the right to vote, but not all women. 

Boise City Hall is hosting the exhibit “Standing Together: Women’s Ongoing Fight for Equality” which expands the conversation of suffrage to include historically marginalized groups. 

Brandi Burns and Jennifer Yribar from Boise Arts and History Department join Idaho Matters to talk more about the exhibit.
