Conference Session 5 of 5: What did the Amendments Not Cover?

This is the final session of the virtual 2020 Conrad E. Wright Research Conference, "'Shall Not Be Denied': The 15th and 19th Amendments at the Sesquicentennial and Centennial of Their Ratifications."

This panel discussion will consider two pre-circulated essays: Adam H. Domby's “The Lost Cause and the 15th Amendment: Disenfranchisement and the Passage of the 19th Amendment,” and Elizabeth Katz's “Women’s Suffrage and the Right to Hold Public Office.” The session will be followed by concluding remarks given by Allison Lange, Wentworth Institute of Technology, and Christian Samito, Boston University School of Law.
