Visit a Suffragist is a map of suffragist gravesites created in 2016 by Amy Elliott Bragg, a Michigan resident. The project began locally, expanded statewide and, after some minor social media virality in the days leading up to the 2016 presidential election, picked up steam nationwide.

The project, exceedingly incomplete, strives to define suffrage in the broadest terms, commemorating the movement that gave women the Constitutional right to vote with the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920, the Civil Rights movement of the 1960s that among other aims sought to secure voting rights for all Black Americans, to recognize women who broke barriers to run for elected office and serve the public, and to give inspiration to ongoing efforts to end gerrymandering and protect the franchise from voter suppression and false claims of voter fraud.

Amy, an independent writer, researcher and history enthusiast, is doing this on her own with a full-time job and a small child to raise. This project will be better, more useful and way more fun with your help. Would you like to:
