It’s November, and I have so many things to be grateful for. Such as the support of listeners like you and the fact that I’m a woman in the modern world, not the historical one. Despite enormous progress, you may have noticed that the modern world is still not always kind to women. That’s why this November I will be giving half of all Her Half of History profits to a nonprofit focused on helping women. You can vote on which nonprofit to support in the poll here. And there’s never been a better time to sign up as a supporter on Patreon or Substack or to make a one-time donation on Buy Me a Coffee.

My podcast, blog, and newsletter are for anyone who wishes their history classes had included more women. Here’s the latest podcast episode:

On This Day: Susan B Anthony Commits Voter Fraud (Nov 5) – Her Half of History

I am on every major podcast app including the following. If your favorite podcast app is not listed, try here for all the rest.

Her Half of History is a podcast that comes out on Thursdays with (mostly) standalone episodes that run between 15 and 30 minutes. Right now I’m in a series called “Women Together,” where I’m telling the stories of what women can do when they band together, from Vestal Virgins to feminist protests in Iceland, and many more. This is series 16. You can browse past series here. You can browse the back catalog of over 200 episodes here.

On This Day in Womens’ History is a weekly newsletter that comes out on Mondays. Every week, I will tell you about what happened on that day in history. If you’re already a Patreon subscriber, you’re all set. If not, sign up here to get it delivered to your inbox. Either way, the story about the historical woman is free, along with news about the podcast, and a place to share your recommendations for historical books, movies, shows, etc. If you sign up as a paid subscriber, you’re also helping me keep this show going, and I’ll send you bonus content each week as a thank you.
