How Radical: The Podcast, hosted by Ginger Thomson, launches today with Robert P. J. Cooney, Jr., author of “Winning the Vote: The Triumph of the American Woman Suffrage Movement.” This contemporary male supporter of the movement discusses South Dakota’s important role in the suffrage movement and brings to life the strategies used by suffragists nationally and in our state. 

“If you wanted to start anywhere you could start looking at the suffrage movement in South Dakota to get a start,” said Robert P.J. Cooney, Jr., suffragist movement historian.  “It’s a strong state history, and it’s something to be very proud of.”
