Dear All: Suzanne Wasserman, director of the Gotham Center for New York History, and I are beginning to work on making a dream come true: *CELEBRATING 100 YEARS OF NEW YORK CITY WOMEN VOTIN*G 1917-2017 Before we take another step (recruiting female restaurant owners. bands, mc's, entertainers, politicos etc)-- I'm writing to check the date: Election Day in 2017 is Tuesday, November 6th. Is anyone planning a suffrage event that day/eve- or on the 5th? *Please let me know asap. * A*lso: opinions? Would another eve that week be a better choice?* The plan is to have a huge party featuring descendants of the nyc women who won us the right to vote --Vanderbilts, Harrimans, Havemeyers, Stanton, Blatch, Horne (Lena Horne), Robeson (Eslanda Robeson), Nathans, Lewishons, plus garment union workers-- all that we can find. A few have surfaced already. (To state the obvious, this is a typically NYC mixture of race and class-- and it will embody what we are celebrating.) Awaiting your imput. Excited! Louise B
