    TEACHER’S GUIDE Center for Children’s and Young Adult Literature, UTK City of Knoxville Suffrage Seed Fund East Tennessee Historical Society Knox County Schools The Voice that Won the Vote: How One Woman’s Words Made History By Elisa Boxer Illustrated by Vivien Mildenberger Synopsis In August of 1920, women's suffrage in America came down to the vote in Tennessee. If the Tennessee legislature approved the 19th amendment it would be ratified, giving all American women the right to vote. The historic moment came down to a single vote and the voter who tipped the scale toward equality did so because of a powerful letter his mother, Febb Burn, had written him urging him to "Vote for suffrage and don't forget to be a good boy." The Voice That Won the Vote is the story of Febb, her son Harry, and the letter that gave all American women a voice. Historical Background In August of 1920, the eyes of the nation were on Tennessee as the state legislature prepared to vote on the ratification of the 19th Amendment, also called the “Susan B. Anthony Amendment.” Thirty-five states had already voted in favor of the amendment, and Tennessee could potentially become the “Perfect 36” – the final state needed for ratification. The amendment sailed through the Senate, but the House of Representatives first voted to table the vote--a motion that, if passed, would delay, or even halt, the decision on the proposed amendment. The representatives, who had been lobbied by both the pro- and anti- suffrage factions, were closely split, and it was only the tying vote by Banks Turner of Gibson County that prevented the amendment from being tabled and cast aside.
