POLITICS

Geraldine Ferraro Campaign Pin, Museum of the City of New York, gift of Amy Sack, 96.24

Beyond Su rage features over 200 rare artifacts, including documents, costumes, photographs, magazine covers, and audio-visual materials spanning more than a century that show how women have been politicized—and in turn changed politics—in New York and beyond. Highlights include Eleanor Roosevelt’s 1932 handwritten speech; a Shirley Chisholm presidential campaign poster signed by the candidate; and a selection of ephemera from multiple Hillary Clinton campaigns featuring one of her signature pantsuits.
