Seneca Falls, Selma, and Stonewall
When President Obama, in his Second Inaugural address, declared “that all of us are created equal” and that this principle “is the star that guides us still, just as it guided our forebears through Seneca Falls, and Selma, and Stonewall,” he laid out a vision of our country’s progressive values and the historic journey toward a more just society that includes women’s rights, racial equality, gay rights, and immigrant rights.

Here at The Progressive magazine, we’ve been documenting that journey for the last 104 years.

This month, we are launching a new “Hidden History” e-book series: monthly installments of riveting selections from our archives.

Newly digitized and fully searchable, our archives are a treasure trove of progressive history, beginning with the magazine’s founding in 1909 by Fighting Bob La Follette, who declared, “In the course of every attempt to establish or develop free government, a struggle between Special Privilege and Equal Rights is inevitable.”

The Progressive documented that struggle, throughout its early, suffragist years under the guidance of Belle Case La Follette, during the great civil rights battles of the 1950s and 1960s, and with joyful declarations of gay liberation by Allen Ginsberg and Harry Hay, founder of the modern gay rights movement, who said in a Progressive interview: “We have to be people who set each other free.”
