On this week's episode of "Kaleidoscope with Allison Keyes", a look at Women's Equality Day, commemorating the adoption of the 19th Amendment guaranteeing women the right to vote. 102 years later, the non-profit League of Women Voters is rebranding this as Women's Inequality Day. CEO Virginia Kase Solomón tells Allison this is because many women of color weren't able to cast votes for decades after the ratification of the amendment. She also says women around the nation are dealing with an attack on voting rights, the reversal of Roe v. Wade, and the loss of many rights women fought so hard to gain.
