Sylvia Pankhurst's Sedition of 1920
“Upheld by Force” Sylvia Pankhurst’s Sedition of 1920 Edward Crouse Undergraduate Thesis Department of History Columbia University April 4, 2018 Seminar Advisor: Elizabeth Blackmar Second Reader: Susan Pedersen With dim lights and tangled circumstance they tried to shape their thought and deed in noble agreement; but after all, to common eyes their struggles seemed mere inconsistency and formlessness; for these later-born Theresas were helped by no coherent social faith and order which could perform the function of knowledge for the ardently willing soul. Their ardor alternated between a vague ideal and the common yearning of womanhood; so that the one was disapproved as extravagance, and the other condemned as a lapse. – George Eliot, Middlemarch, 1872 Table of Contents Acknowledgements ................................................................................................................... 2 Abbreviations ............................................................................................................................ 3 Introduction .............................................................................................................................. 4 The End of Edwardian England: Pankhurst’s Political Development ................................. 12 After the War: Pankhurst’s Collisions with Communism and the State .............................. 21 Appealing Sedition: Performativity of Communism and Suffrage ....................................... 33 Prison and Release: Attempted Constructions of Martyrology -
Nothing Complicated About Ordinary Equality: Alice Paul and Self-Sacrifice
Nothing Complicated About Ordinary Equality: Alice Paul and Self-Sacrifice Handout A: Narrative BACKGROUND The organized reform movement for American women’s economic and legal rights, including suffrage, is commonly dated from the Seneca Falls Convention of 1848. At this meeting of about 300 people, Elizabeth Cady Stanton read her Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions, and 100 attendees signed the document. Stanton met Susan B. Anthony three years later and for the next half century the two women collaborated in a powerful partnership focused on numerous social reforms including the abolition of slavery, support for temperance, and pursuit of legal equality for women. In 1885, Alice Paul was born to a Quaker family in New Jersey, and as a small child she attended women’s suffrage events with her mother. She would become one of the most powerful voices for women’s rights in the new century, bringing new life to a movement that had stalled out by 1900. NARRATIVE From a young age, Paul demonstrated outstanding academic promise, and though she studied social work and served the poor at settlement houses, she disdained the typical professions open to women: nursing, teaching, and social work. She later explained, “I knew in a very short time I was never going to be a social worker, because I could see that social workers were not doing much good in the world…you couldn’t change the situation by social work.” After completing a bachelor’s degree in biology and then a master’s degree in sociology, Paul sailed to Great Britain in 1907. -
View of the Many Ways in Which the Ohio Move Ment Paralled the National Movement in Each of the Phases
INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While tf.; most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. -

Iron Jawed Angels
Voting Rights Under Attack: An NCJW Toolkit to Protect the Vote Film Screening and Discussion: Iron Jawed Angels Films can offer a good basis for discussion and further understanding of important subjects. A film program that includes a screening, facilitated discussion, and perhaps even a speaker, can be an excellent way for NCJW members and supporters to learn more about and get involved in an issue. Iron Jawed Angels, film by Katja von Garnier: In the early twentieth century, the American women’s suffrage movement mobilized and fought to grant women the right to vote. Watch Alice Paul (Hilary Swank) and Lucy Burns (Frances O’Connor) as they fight for women’s suffrage and revolutionize the American feminist movement. Preparation for the Film Screening: Ñ Remind participants to be prepared to discuss how the film relates to NCJW’s mission. Ñ Encourage participants to bring statistics and information about voter rights in your community. Ñ Confirm location and decide who is bringing snacks and beverages. Ñ Ensure a facilitator is prepared to ask questions and guide discussion. Ñ Download and print copies of NCJW’s Promote the Vote. Protect the Vote Resource Guide. Discussion Questions to Consider: Ñ Alice Paul, Lucy Burns, and the National Women’s Party conducted marches, picketed the White House, and held rallies. What ways can you mobilize and influence your local, state, and federal elected officials? Ñ Lucy Burns discusses the “dos and don’ts” of lobbying, which include knowing the background of the member, being a good listener, and not losing your temper. Do you think these www.ncjw.org June 2016 4 Voting Rights Under Attack: An NCJW Toolkit to Protect the Vote rules have changed in the past 100 years? If so, how? What other “dos and don’ts” can you think of? Ñ How did the film portray racism within the women’s suffrage movement? How did racism linger in the feminist movement? Ñ In the film, the methods of the National Women’s Party and the National American Women’s Suffrage Association are contrasted. -
