    The image shows a multi-panel educational display board about the women's suffrage and equality movement, spanning decades from 1848 to approximately 1940. The display features historical photographs, timelines, and informational text organized by decade (1870, 1880, 1890, 1900, 1940), decorated with red, white, and blue star embellishments. Individual portrait photographs of notable women are mounted with red matting at the bottom of the panels, consistent with a National Women's History Project exhibition.

    Display cards are set up Aug. 15, 2019, for the Fort McCoy (Wis.) observance of Women’s Equality Day in McCoy's Community Center. Dozens of people attended the event. Women’s Equality Day is observed annually on Aug. 26, which was chosen to commemorate the 1920 certification of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, granting women the right to vote, according to www.nationalwomenshistoryalliance.org.
