Angle Jaunty Placard Reads Straw Suffrage Suffragette Suffragettes Votes Wears Rights
EDITORS COMMENTS
This image of a feline suffragette, donning a straw hat at a jaunty angle, boldly advocates for women's right to vote in the early 1900s. The cat's large placard, emblazoned with the clear and concise message "Votes for Women," adds a playful yet powerful twist to the suffrage movement. The photograph, believed to have been taken around 1908, is a testament to the creativity and determination of the suffragettes in raising awareness for their cause. The use of animals as symbols of various social and political issues was a common tactic during this era, and the inclusion of this cat in suffragette attire adds a delightful and unexpected element to the historical record. The image is a reminder of the rich history of the suffrage movement and the enduring spirit of those who fought for women's rights and suffrage, paving the way for future generations to enjoy the privilege of casting their ballots in democratic elections.
