  4. Timeline Questions • How many years from the time white men voted until women voted? • How many years did all women try to get the vote? • How many years did white men try to get the vote? • FYI… black men got the vote right after the Civil War . In the south Jim Crow Laws prevented all blacks from voting but that is a story for another day…
