Background
Use the following hashtags to connect your story with others: #NPS19th #WomensRightsNPS #WomensRightsNHP
Reformers and activists in the 1800s used newspapers and public speaking events to share their ideas. What would it be like if they had today’s social media on their side?
In this activity, you’ll be the media manager for a nineteenth-century activist. Then think about how you’d share their message—videos, blogs, photos—and why.
