<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:106%"><b>LET OHIO WOMEN VOTE
</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:106%">A Documentary <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:106%">As Americans, we are fiercely proud of our rights and our freedoms - one of the most cherished being the right to vote and have a say in on our own governance. One hundred years ago, the 19th
Amendment to the Constitution extended the vote to women, and as they say, the rest is history. Or is it?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:106%">In truth, women fought long and hard for decades in order to enter the voting booth on par with their male counterparts. Generations of Ohioans played an integral role in the fight for the vote,
as well as other civil justice movements like the abolition of slavery and temperance. In fact, fifty years after Ohioans played a key role in Wyoming becoming the first state to grant unrestricted suffrage to women, Ohio was among the first states to ratify
the 19th Amendment. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:106%">With the 30-minute documentary
<i>Let Ohio Women Vote</i>, we will highlight the important work of suffragists in our state and the ripple effects that the actions of Ohioans had throughout the country in the seventy-plus years before the 19th Amendment was finally ratified. We will also
call attention to the underappreciated role of women of color and foreground the racial politics of the mostly White-led suffrage movement. Finally, the documentary will ask whether there is still work to do; women have had the vote for 100 years, but has
the dream of universal enfranchisement and equality been achieved in Ohio? <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:106%">While historical in nature, the documentary is also surprisingly timely. As we embark on filming, the nation continues to grapple with issues of ballot access. The COVID-19 pandemic adds an additional
layer of complexity to the mechanics of voting in an already fraught election cycle. Taking a look at the past will deepen our understanding of the questions we face today around voting rights, and perhaps explain why these questions are still part of our
political landscape. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt;line-height:106%">The woman-led ThinkTV production team behind this project has received a combined 40 regional Emmy Awards. We have the skill and the passion to bring this story to life.
