16 Days of Activism 2017: Womanish Ways Film Screening

Sunday, November 26, 2017 is the 55th anniversary of the first time Bahamian women voted. Five women – Mary Ingraham, Mabel Walker, Georgiana Symonette, Eugenia Lockhart and Doris Johnson – led the Women’s Suffrage Movement and fought for the enfranchisement of all Bahamian women. “Freedom, Womanish Ways & Democracy” explores the story of the Women’s Suffrage Movement.
Join us at the National Art Gallery of The Bahamas on Monday, November 27 to learn about the Women’ Suffrage Movement in The Bahamas, celebrate the successful fight for enfranchisement of Bahamian women, and engage with Director and Producer Marion Bethel.

This event is part of the #16Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence campaign coordinated by Equality Bahamas.
