#HappyBirthday to Suffragist Betty Gram, who was born #OnThisDay in 1893. This #MotivationMonday, we’re getting inspired by this photo from @librarycongress of Sen. Freylinghuysen congratulating Gram on NJ's ratification of the 19th Amendment. #WomensHistoryMonth

Picketing was a tried & true tactic of the Suffrage Movement, and this image shows the practice being put in play.
Taken #OTD in 1917, the picture features NY suffragists picketing outside the White House. This helped capture the attention of both the president AND the public.
