Sketches in History | Marching for Progress

Welcome back to Sketches in History! This segment, just for kids, shows that history isn't just a story; it's an adventure. Join Lottie Archer as she dives into her extraordinary notebook, where sketches from history come to life.

In this episode, Lottie travels to 1913 Washington, D.C., where thousands of women in white march down Pennsylvania Avenue demanding the right to vote. But this march is just the beginning. Lottie discovers an era when Americans rewrote their own rulebook four times in seven years. Your kids will learn what progress really means, why one amendment had to be completely undone, and how a single letter from a mother changed the course of history forever.
