The back stories of the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good are the subject of "Wicked," now in movie theaters with a 90% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. @Smithsonianmag tells the true story of Matilda Gage, L. Frank Baum's mother-in-law, who inspired the witch characters in "The Wizard of Oz." "After male critics branded Gage as satanic and a heretic, she became an expert on the subject of witch hunts," writes Evan I. Schwartz. "Her 1893 manifesto 'Woman, Church and State' chronicled the five centuries between 1300 and 1800 when tens of thousands of human beings, mostly women, were accused of witchcraft and put to death by fire, hanging, torture, drowning or stoning."

The concluding part of the two part episode of Origin Story on the British Suffragette’s and other campaigner’s for votes for women is superb. I think it drops on the general podcast feed on Monday. Part 1 available now.
They have taught me a lot about the campaigns that I didn’t know. Including about the much larger Suffragist movement.

This Day in Legal History:
Equal Rights Party FormedOn September 20, 1884, a group of #American #suffragists formed the
🔸Equal Rights Party 🔸
in San Francisco, marking a significant moment in the fight for #gender #equality in the United States.The party was established with the goal of securing
"equal and exact justice"
for all citizens, regardless of color, sex, or nationality.A key focus was on amending state laws to recognize women as voters
and to ensure equal property rights,
aiming to empower women to become self-sufficient rather than remain dependent.
In a bold move, the party nominated Mrs. #Belva #Lockwood as its candidate for U.S. President and #Marietta #Snow for Vice-President.
Lockwood, a lawyer and prominent suffragist, became one of the first women to actively campaign for the presidency.
While Grover Cleveland ultimately won the election, Lockwood’s candidacy broke new ground.
She garnered around 4,149 votes, all cast by male voters, as women did not yet have the right to vote nationally.
This event showcased the growing momentum of the women’s suffrage movement,
which would eventually lead to the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920,
granting women the right to vote.The Equal Rights Party's formation highlighted the early intersection of gender, legal rights, and political advocacy in American history
