The Magic Sash

TRAX from PRX

The Magic Sash is a journey back in time hosted by gold-medal gymnast and advocate Aly Raisman. Join Lotty and Isaiah, two very modern fifth graders as they meet iconic heroes of the movement for women’s right to vote and experience big moments in women’s suffrage first-hand. They’ll learn that what women (and men) fought for — women’s full political equality —  isn’t dusty history at all.

The Magic Sash is a production of the Women’s Suffrage Centennial Commission, the National Park Service, TRAX from PRX, and Gen-Z Media.

NPS has designed companion lesson plans for teachers at go.nps.gov/suffragepodcast

Lotty finds herself locked in jail with a grown-up Florence and Susan B. Anthony. Isaiah stages a rescue, and the adventure continues with a visit to 1888 and a face-to-face meeting with Frederick Douglass!

Tweens and parents: To hear more about the complicated relationship between suffragists and abolitionists — and about how some of them took sides based on race, but they eventually came together — listen to And Nothing Less: Truth is Of No Color. And Nothing Less is our podcast of suffrage history hosted by Rosario Dawson and Retta.
