Appalachia's Petticoat Government - a podcast by Steve Gilly, Rod Mullins

In 1948 Clintwood, Virginia, held an election for the town's offices. After the campaigning, the voting, and the vote counting, something unique for it's time had happened: All of Clintwood's elected officials were women!

Today we tell the story of the first all-female elected government in Appalachia.
