Night of Terror

Daily writing prompt
If you could go back and witness any historical event, which one would you pick?

I would like to witness the “Night of Terror” in 1917, when members of the National Woman’s Party picketed the White House for voting rights. They faced brutal arrests and imprisonment. Severe abuse during hunger strikes sparked public outrage that accelerated the passage of the 19th Amendment. The 19th amendment prohibited the federal government and all states from denying the right to vote to any citizen based on sex.

Were your human rights ever restricted? How? Comment to let me know!
