Her Ink, her voice

Her Ink, Her Voice brings to life the extraordinary journey of Susie Revels Cayton, daughter of the first Black U.S. Senator and co-editor of The Seattle Republican. Set against the backdrop of the Reconstruction Era and early 20th-century Seattle, Cayton’s story is one of defiant optimism, community journalism, and unyielding advocacy.

The program will be followed by an interactive Q&A and audience discussion, encouraging dialogue around Cayton’s enduring impact and the historical relevance of her work in today’s social and political landscape. Light refreshments will be served.
