Attention Suffrage Suffragette Suffragettes Vows Weeping Desparate Rights
EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant image captures the determination and passion of a young girl, circa 1909, who vows to become a suffragette after being ignored by her family. The photograph, titled "I Se a Suffragette," depicts a weeping child with a pleading expression, her eyes fixed on her family as they focus on something else in the room. The historical context of this image is significant, as it reflects the intense struggle for women's suffrage that was taking place during this time. The suffragette movement, which began in the late 19th century, aimed to secure the right to vote for women. The suffragettes, led by passionate and determined women such as Emmeline Pankhurst, employed various tactics to bring attention to their cause, including protests, marches, and even acts of civil disobedience. Despite facing harsh opposition from society and the government, the suffragettes remained committed to their cause. This young girl, inspired by their bravery and determination, vows to join their ranks and fight for her right to be heard. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices and struggles endured by the suffragettes in their quest for women's suffrage and the impact they had on the course of history. This photograph is a poignant and moving representation of the passion and determination of the suffragette movement and the impact it had on individuals, particularly young girls, who were inspired by their cause. The image is a valuable historical document and a reminder of the progress that has been made in the fight for women's rights.
