This four-hour, two-part documentary tells the dramatic story of the hard-fought campaign waged by American women for the right to vote — a transformative cultural and political movement that resulted in the largest expansion of voting rights in U.S. history.

Dramatic and thought-provoking, The Vote, at its core, is a story about power. Focusing primarily on the movement’s momentous final decade, the film charts American women’s determined march to the ballot box and illuminates the myriad social, political and cultural obstacles that stood in their path. The Vote is available to watch on KET Passport before it airs on broadcast.

American Masters: Unladylike KET Friday, July 10 • 9/8 pm KET2 Thursday, July 16 • 9/8 pm Delve into the stories of American heroines from the early years of the fight for equal rights, when women faced limited career and educational choices.

These extraordinary women charted their own paths and achieved many firsts, such as founding a hospital, fighting for the desegregation of public spaces, exploring the Arctic, opening a film studio, and singing opera at Carnegie Hall.

Their fascinating stories are brought back to life thanks to original artwork and animation, rare historical archival footage, and interviews with historians and descendants.
