EDITORS COMMENTS
Kaiser Wilson, have you forgotten your sympathy with the poor Germans because they were not self-governed? 20,000,000 American women are not self-governed. Take the beam out of your eye," and "Mr. President, what did you mean when you said in 1916 to a woman suffrage convention, shortly before the national election: 'I will fight with you. The tide is rising to meet the Moon'?" The women's gestures are assertive and metaphorical, as they call out to President Woodrow Wilson for equal rights and self-governance. The pile of banners and poles in the background attests to the magnitude of their cause. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the women's suffrage movement in the United States during the early 20th century, which culminated in the passing of the 19th Amendment in 1920, granting women the legal right to vote. The image is a significant historical artifact that documents the tenacity and perseverance of the women's suffrage movement and their unwavering commitment to achieving political equality."
