African American Women in Iowa and the Vote for All

We started our program with a visit from Eric Morse, one of the organizers of the exhibition "Toward a Universal Suffrage: African American Women in Iowa and the Vote for All," which will be at the State Historical Society until August 2. Eric also told us about the Central Iowa Community Museum,  a new organization which will be bringing such traveling exhibitions to our area.  Other events taking place this weekend are Ankeny Community Theatre's reader's theatre production of Vices and Slater Area Historical Association's The History of Hats (call 515-480-9789 or 515-228-3293 for appointment).  Dennis Hart and Paul Wierson joined us for a report on how COVID 19 has affected their lives since they were together on Local Talk in October..
