by info@c-spanarchives.org (National Cable Satellite Corporation)
Scenes and interviews from a centennial celebration marking the March 3, 1913 Women's Suffrage Parade on Pennsylvania Avenue in the nation's capitol were shown. The original parade in 1913 included about 5,000 women and was halted by an unruly mob of thousands. Over 200 participants were taken to the hospital, and the secretary of war called the U.S. Calvary from Fort Myer to restore order.
