I participated in the ASAP women exhibition project because I believe that the right to vote is an important part of civil rights. Thanks to the contributions of early women suffragists, especially those suffragists who were women of color, women can now exercise the right to vote and participate in government work. As one of the ASAP women exhibition participants, I am excited to read, learn, and tell the stories of these women in the suffrage movement.<\/div>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<p><!-- COPY AND PASTE THIS PART, FILL IN THE BLANKS!!!!! --><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Exhibition Curators<\/strong><\/h2>\n<table cellpadding=\"10\">\n<tr>\n<th>\n<h3 id=\"titleform\">Mariama Faye (Yama)<\/h3>\n<p>INTERVIEWEE<br \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pngform\" src=\"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/asap-exhibition\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/320\/2020\/06\/20150507_151201000_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"Ya,ma\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"biotext\">I am an ordinary woman learning and doing extraordinary things.\u00a0 Born and raised in The Gambia, EAST Africa, my vision is to create a safe environment where conversations and ideas are born regarding Mental Health and Education.<\/div>\n<\/th>\n<th>\n<h3 id=\"titleform\">Samavia Gulfam<\/h3>\n<p>Interviewee<br \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"pngform\" src=\"https:\/\/openlab.bmcc.cuny.edu\/asap-exhibition\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/320\/2020\/06\/Samavia.jpg\" alt=\"Samavia\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"biotext\">I am a senior at Columbia University majoring in Biology.
