  • 1 TEACHER's GUIDE Center for Children's and Young Adult
    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.

    Section III Judicial Branch Tennessee Blue Book ElectorateTennessee Judicial Branch Supreme Court Administrative Attorney Office of the General and Courts Reporter Court of Court of Criminal Appeals Appeals Chancery Probate Courts Criminal Courts Circuit Courts Courts District District Public Attorneys Defenders General General Municipal Juvenile Courts Sessions Courts Courts 478 Introduction The judicial branch, one of the three basic divisions of state government, serves as a check on the powers of both the legislative and executive branches. With the power of judicial review, the courts may rule on the constitutionality of legislation passed by the General Assembly and consider the legality of administrative policies and regulations. Tennessee’s judicial system is derived from the state constitution: “The judi- cial power of this state shall be vested in one Supreme Court and in such Circuit, Chancery and other Inferior Courts as the Legislature shall from time to time, ordain and establish…” (Article VI, Section 1, Constitution of the State of Tennessee). Although not a part of the court system, the offices of the attorney general, dis- trict attorneys general, and district public defenders are associated with the judicial branch of state government. The attorney general represents the interests of the state in litigation. The district attorneys serve as prosecuting counsel in criminal Branch Judicial cases. Public defenders and court-appointed private attorneys represent indigent defendants. The Supreme Court is the highest court in the state. The five justices are nominated by the Governor’s Council for Judicial Appointments who, when there is a vacancy to be filled, accept applications from interested parties, interview the applicants, and then make a recommendation to the governor for consideration.
