Happy #WomenEqualityDay! While we celebrate the ratification of the 19th Amendment 100 years ago, it's important to remember it didn't guarantee the right to vote for ALL women. It would be decades before women of color and indigenous women were extended that right.

Happy birthday to me! I was born in New Albany, Ind., on this day in 1850. Twenty years later I would go on to found Kappa Alpha Theta, the first Greek-letter fraternity known among women, igniting a movement to support women pursuing higher education. #womensupportingwomen

On this day 151 years ago, four young women gathered together to found the first Greek-letter fraternity known among women. It's only fitting to share the first installment of our new and improved series about Theta history, From the Theta Archives! bit.ly/2Yrac9f
