And so it began...

[American Civil War Museum @ACWMuseum]

#OTD in 1861, commenced the first major battle of the American Civil War, The Battle of Bull Run. What was meant to be a voyage from the U.S. Army to capture Richmond and end the war in 90 days resulted in the prolonging of the years of war that inevitably followed.

It's time for another #archiveshashtagparty, this one to honor best friends. In a time of racial strife, the relationship b/t FLOTUS Eleanor Roosevelt & National Council of Negro Women president Mary McLeod Bethune showed there needn't be racial lines in friendship. #archivesbff

#NationalHandwritingDay is a perfect time to remind you that not all opposition to suffrage came from men. Many women were also opposed to suffrage because they felt they already had control in certain societal aspects such as education, philanthropy and civic projects. #suffrage
