The right to vote wasn't given to women — they fought for it, and won.

Celebrate the 100th anniversary of the largest expansion of voting rights in US history. THE VOTE premieres in a two-night event, beginning Mon July 6 at 9/8c on PBS → pbs.org/thevote

50 years ago, on October 4, 1970, PBS began broadcasting! While the faces, places, and world have changed, the mission to inspire has never wavered — and American Experience is thrilled to be a part of it. Do you have any favorite PBS memories? #PBS50
