A PROJECT CREATED TO INFORM AMERICANS OF THEIR RIGHTS

The project was created by Jad Abumrad and the team at the More Perfect podcast from WNYC Studios.

The project is a compilation inspired by the 27 Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, and Dolly's amendment is the 19th - women's right to vote.

HARD HITTING LYRICS IN "A WOMAN'S RIGHT"

Dolly is well known as a brilliant songwriter and lyricist, and she delivers some hard-hitting lines in this new song:

"They said a woman’s place / Was staying in her hut / Washin’, cookin’, cleanin’ / Wipin’ babies' butts,"

As a woman who has climbed the ladder of success all the way from a poverty-stricken childhood in Tenessee, Dolly Parton surely knows the sweet taste of hard-won women's rights.
