Suffrage Centennial
Mary Windsor, 1917
T here never will be complete equality until women themselves help to make laws and elect lawmakers. — Susan B. Anthony
Lucy Burns in Jail, 1917

In this year, while many of us still feel cheated out of our first female president and grieve though daily reports of cyber leaks and outrageous conspiracy theories or fake news, we look back to the struggles that millions of mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers and aunts went through fighting for the right to vote. In 1847, Seneca Falls, NY, Elizabeth Cady Stanton was spurred on by Emerson’s quote, “A healthy discontent is the first step to progress.” Along with Lucretia Mott, Stanton drafted a ‘womanifesto’ modeled after the declaration of Independence, “We hold these truths to be self- evident, that all men and women are created equal.” The Susan B. Anthony first women’s rights convention joined the cause was held the following summer a few years later. in 1848 and Susan B. Anthony joined the cause a few years The movement later. The movement was born.
was born.
Most of the founders passed away before being able to vote legally but years of strategizing, organizing, marching in corsets covered by long heavy dresses, picketing the white house, being ridiculed, spat on, beaten and mocked while many women spent days, weeks and even months in jail, tortured and force-fed before finally culminated in winning the long generational war of Enfranchisement. Seventy years after starting the struggle, in 1917, New York State passed the Suffrage Amendment, becoming the first state East of the Mississippi to allow women the vote (many states in the western half had passed such bills 3
Susan B. Anthony
previously) and for the first time, women could vote in NY, three years before the national amendment. Carrie Chapman Catt was born a decade after the Seneca Falls convention and became twice the president of the NAWSA (National American Woman Suffrage Association). Through her leadership and adherence to her own motto, “To the wrongs that need resistance, to the right that needs assistance, to the future in the distance, give yourselves,” Catt fought and helped get more than a million signatures in New York for the passage of the women’s rights bill before going on to successfully win the national battle. She, like so many before her, believed that she would not live long enough to see the vote ‘given’ to women. She did.

Alice Paul broke with NAWSA in 1916 and along with Lucy Burns founded the National Women’s Party. Their more radical actions were crucial in the long struggle. Recently, books and movies are renewing interest in Women’s Suffrage. Meryl Streep played Emmeline Pankhurst in the movie “The Suffragette” stated, “We have been left with no alternative but to defy this government.” Her performance and Barack Obama’s words earlier this year spoke to me as a call to further the cause: Author’s Grandmother, c. 1917
“Change happens when people get engaged…it pushed women to reach for the ballot, showing the capacity to change. Democracy is often hard and bloody, a long sweep by forward motion, relying on solidarity and protest to protect equal treatment. We all have to try harder. We the people give the constitution power. Be an anxious jealous guardian of Democracy. If it needs fixing, lace up your shoes and do some organizing. Show up, dive in, sometimes you’ll win. Believe in a fair, just and inclusive America. Believe in your ability to bring on change. March for justice.” We did and will continue to march, speak up and stand up, for our mothers, grandmothers, great-grandmothers and our daughters. Until we get an Equal Rights Amendment passed, until we have equal pay, until we see half or more women in all levels of government and until we obtain all the rights and privileges that White men in this country have enjoyed, I urge all who care about justice and liberty as Carrie Chapman Catt did when writing to the women of New York in a 1917 letter, “… keep your army intact.” Author’s mother at age 14, c. 1920

Passionate Youths
Publisher’s mother, c. 1924
T he future depends entirely on what each of us does every day; a movement is only people moving. — Gloria Steinem

It seems almost symbolic that, exactly 100 years after New York State granted women’s suffrage, the nation’s women once again mobilized to fight for their rights in what turned out to be the largest inauguration protest in US history. I was lucky enough to be able to attend the Women’s March on Washington in DC with my friends and classmates from Barnard College. In many ways, Marching among those diverse and this movement passionate women made me think a lot about how much we take for was built upon granted, how far we have come, the shoulders of and how far we still need to go. A the suffragettes century ago, women followers of Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady who dedicated their lives to Stanton were marching and picketing for the vote, even being jailed for accomplishing voting illegally at polls intended only their goal. for men. Just as resistance against women’s suffrage was tied to the fear of shifting gender roles and uprooting of patriarchal power, you could trace the same fear in the past election and the loss of a Hillary presidency. Because of this parallel my classmates and I joined with millions of women, in the United States and abroad, in demanding the protection of fundamental reproductive rights, as well as the rights of minority groups to feel safe and accepted in this country. In many ways, this movement was built upon the shoulders of the suffragettes who dedicated their lives to accomplishing their goal. Elizabeth Cady Stanton & Susan B. Anthony 7
The vote has been secured for women long enough for my generation, and even the generation before mine, to forget just how recently we acquired it and how hard won it was. Suffrage was about far more than giving women the opportunity to cast a ballot— it was the first great step toward gender equality. It formed the foundation of the first feminist movement and for the movements that have occurred since. It is because of the suffragettes that real, substantial progress has been made in women’s rights, and that the Women’s March on Washington was able to have power—because women vote. And yet, the vote is something we continually take for granted as something that has always existed, something that we can partake in if we want to, but that we can opt out of, something that doesn’t matter. How is it that we have forgotten the gravity of this right?
Pat Horner
Although young people in general get a bad rap for being technology-obsessed, apathetic, and lazy, I have found my peers to be the most accepting, inclusive, empathetic, and change-driven people I know; people who lead movements, spread awareness and information, and believe in a future that does not thrive on the disenfranchisement of any group or people. Growing up in Woodstock, I had the good fortune to be surrounded 8
by politically active, liberalminded, creative, and passionate people of all ages. The youths I know are passionate about the environment, about feminism, about civic engagement, about social justice.
the great part of the young population is set on changing the world.
It is in them that I see the new suffragettes, people who march and resist and will continue to fight the good fight against misogyny, racism, homophobia, and the systems in place in this country that perpetuate this toxicity. So while perhaps not every millennial has these traits or interests, I feel reassured in knowing that the great part of the young population is set on changing the world. —Eliza Siegel Eliza Siegel is a first-year student at Barnard College of Columbia University, and a staff writer for the Woodstock Times.

Woodstock’s Active Feminists
Elizabeth Freeman with fellow suffragists
T he law changes and flows like water, and…the stream of women’s rights law has become a sudden rushing torrent. —Shana Alexander
10
On July 26, 2013, the New York State legislature passed a resolution to celebrate the centennial of the granting to women the right to vote: On November 6, 1917, after 50 years of marches, fund-raising and rallies, women won that right. Governor Cuomo has announced the kickoff of the NYS Women’s Suffrage 100th Anniversary Commemorative Commission, responsible for statewide programs that will promote the anniversary from 2017 to 2020. This is the right historical moment for a statewide discussion about the social, professional and political equality of women. A re-education is necessary to counteract the recent rejection to elect a woman as president. When the suffrage movement began, Woodstock became a refuge for early feminists like Charlotte Perkins Gilman, who joined the Byrdcliffe Colony and collaborated with other activists, Woodstock women who campaigned for feminist causes.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Another Woodstock feminist/artist was social realist sculptor Abastenia St. Leger Eberle. She modeled images of poor immigrants and the disenfranchised. A member of the Ashcan School, 11
Mary Ellen Sigsbee Fischer
Mary Ellen Sigsbee Fischer came to spend summers in Woodstock with her second husband, Anton Otto Fischer. She was an illustrator, a socialist and a supporter of women’s suffrage, and she made posters for the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA). In 1916 Carrie Chapman Catt, president of NAWSA, organized a New York state petition campaign that resulted in the largest individually signed petition, totaling over one million names, a majority of the women in the state.

Abastenia St. Leger Eberle
she is remembered for the statue called “The White Slave,” exhibited at the Armory Show of 1913. She depicted the urban poor from a female viewpoint and when she came to Woodstock, used that same perspective in her sculpture of local farm women.
Two of the most famous suffragettes were not natives to Woodstock ...but their descendants were. Heywood Hale “Woodie” Broun lived in Woodstock from 1948 to his death in 2001. He was the only child of journalists Heywood Broun and Ruth Hale, who also attracted fame as founders of the Algonquin Round Table. Along with Dorothy Parker, Ruth made up the feminine aspect, with both having sharp wits and quick minds. Ruth Hale is forgotten next to the enormous popularity of her husband. But she was the power behind Heywood Broun’s prolific literary success, as well as the source of his commitment to giving a voice to the downtrodden. She was an important social activist, co-founding the Lucy Stone League, which Ruth Hale fought for the right of women to keep their own name after they married, as a symbol of the equality with her husband. (Lucy Stone, in the 19th century, was reported to be the first woman to retain her given name.) 12
Heywood Broun wrote at a time of newspaper dominance in the United States. He was very influential as he passionately protested against social, political and economic injustice. Ruth began helping Heywood handle the demands of his job after their marriage in 1917 by guiding and inspiring him to say more and to say it better. She prodded him to be brave and helped transform him into a crusader—and in 1929 his column had one million readers. Woodie said that “Ruth was the conscience, Heywood was the voice of conscience.” She carried out this important work anonymously. Ruth was also a founder of Heterodoxy in 1912, an early suffrage organization, and was a staunch supporter of Alice Paul’s National Woman’s Party (NWP). Heterodoxy was the American organization where feminism found its full expression because its members advocated liberation from all forms of sexual discrimination . . . they were fighting to obtain all the freedoms men had.
... they were fighting to obtain all the freedoms men had.
During the ’20s she worked with the NWP, which was committed to absolute gender equality. It appealed to women who Alice Paul, founder of National Women’s Party were impatient with the slow progress in women’s rights after suffrage was achieved. They also fought for a constitutional equal rights amendment. After her death in 1934 at the age of 47, Heywood acknowledged that his best work stemmed from Ruth, that she was the better newspaperman, a much more focused thinker and far more disciplined then he was. She was a fearless rebel and idealist. 13
Elizabeth Freeman in suffrage demonstration
Another descendant of a fighter of feminist causes was Jane Van De Bogart, a social activist who extolled the achievements of her great-aunt Elisabeth Freeman, and the enormous impact her speeches had on the suffrage movement in New York. Freeman’s chance encounter on a trip to England with a British suffragette led to a career as a speaker and organizer to gain the right for women to vote in the United States. She is remembered for her work on Charles Evans Hughes’s presidential campaign against Woodrow Wilson and for her part on the campaign’s transcontinental train trip, along with other “Hughesettes” like Mary Antin, author and immigrant rights worker. They travelled 11,000 miles, and gave over 2000 speeches to black and white audiences. Teddy Roosevelt and other progressives backed Hughes, but the fear of war influenced voters to elect Wilson. In addition to her persuasive oratory, she was known for her media stunts, speaking between rounds at prize fights and at movies and theaters. She also joined other suffragettes in lobbying Albany by walking from New York City to the state capital. Freeman also participated in the famous NYC suffrage march of October 1915 The National Women’s Party pickets outside the White House when white-dressed women paraded up 5th Avenue from Washington Square to 59th Street; the parade ended with a concert of 30 bands and 14
a chorus singing patriotic songs at the Central Park plaza (20,800 women marched, with 2540 men and 74 women on horseback). Despite this 3-mile argument for equal rights New Yorkers deleted the referendum the following month. It would take another 2 years for women to win the vote in New York.

By 1916 with her added participation in the NAACP’s anti-lynching campaign, Freeman was a national player. She was a member of the Emergency Peace Federation (a coalition of groups like Jane Addams’ Woman’s Peace Party). She opposed US participation in the First World War and stood for civil liberties during wartime. It is fitting that Jane Van De Bogart continued this commitment to peace as a member of Veterans for Peace and Quilters for Peace, as well as the founder of Woodstock Women in Black, a group that still meets on the Village Green every Sunday. Jane and Woodie came from a formidable line of women’s rights activists . . . a tradition that continues to this day. —Barry Samuels

Women’s Suffrage Historical Journey
The head of the suffragist parade in Washington, 1913.
Lots of men, you see, simply aren’t ready for assertive women, /they expect us to tiptoe in, trembling and pleading for our rights and when those rights are denied, they expect us not to cause a furor but to tiptoe away quietly. But they underestimate how much we care. — Gloria Allred

A road trip tracing the history of the women’s suffrage movement leads you up the Hudson Valley and west through the Finger Lakes region, where you can stop at the homes of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Harriet Tubman, Susan B. Anthony, and Matilda Joslyn Gage. The scenery of Johnstown, Auburn, Seneca Falls, Rochester, and Fayetteville evokes pure Americana. In 2013 I took that trip with my friend and colleague, Marguerite Kearns, granddaughter of suffragist Edna Kearns, whose campaign wagon, The Spirit of 1776, is on display at the Campaign wagon, The Spirit of 1776 New York State Museum in Albany this year. We were following the Women’s Heritage Trail in New York State, birthplace of the women’s suffrage movement, and we wrote about our observations along the way for the New York History blog, to inspire enthusiasm for centennial celebrations.
Seneca Falls Seneca Falls was site of the 1848 Women’s Rights Convention. A was site of statue there depicts Elizabeth the 1848 Cady Stanton meeting Susan B. Women’s Rights Anthony. Anthony took care of Convention. Stanton’s children so that Stanton could write speeches for Anthony. Anthony became a main ch aracter in the vast cast of early suffragists due to her practical approach. She picked her battles carefully and focused on the goal of votes for women. Anthony campaigned door-to-door by horse and Statue by Ted Aub of Susan B. Anthony meeting Elizabeth Cady Stanton in Senaca Falls.

wagon through the rural landscape of upstate New York. A typical response to a knock at the door in upstate New York was, “Susan B. Anthony, I presume”. In homage to Anthony’s tireless efforts, my mother’s typical response to a knock at the door was, “Susan B. Anthony, I presume?” Researching the Women’s Rights movement on the centennial of New York State women’s suffrage has opened my heart and brought me closer to Program for Suffrage Washington, D.C. parade. my ancestors. The 2017 Women’s March on Washington had a predecessor in August 2013, when women marched in great numbers as part of the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King’s 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Coincidentally, that was also the 100th anniversary of the women’s suffrage parade that was organized by Alice Paul and famously led by Inez Milholland on horseback--an event that drew attention away from the inauguration of President Woodrow Wilson, who had resisted calls for votes for women. The 2013 march was attended by thousands, many from the Delta Sigma Theta sorority founded at Howard University. Waves of women wearing red jackets and hats flowed down Pennsylvania Avenue, a few staving off the cold with spontaneous dance moves like the Harlem Shake. Impersonators of Susan B. Anthony and other famous women enhanced the tableau.

Statue of Sorjourner Truth by sculptor Trina Greene
Later in 2013 a bronze statue of Isabella Baumfree, a.k.a. Sojourner Truth, was unveiled in Port Ewen, where the women’s rights advocate and abolitionist was enslaved as a child. The statue, by New Paltz sculptor Trina Greene, is the only known depiction of an American slave in childhood. Studying this historic person who grew up in Ulster County led me to retrace her steps to freedom over Shaupeneak Ridge as she escaped from West Park to a Quaker community near Rifton. The easily accessible hike makes it possible to imagine the moment Isabella felt comfortable enough to rest at an overlook and Later in 2013 nurse the infant she was carrying. a bronze statue
of Isabella
Many suffragists have yet to be Baumfree, a.k.a. appreciated. Matilda Joslyn Gage’s Sojourner Truth, view of Christianity as a root of oppression didn’t advance her was unveiled in place in the 19th century historical Port Ewen record, but still offers much to ponder. She came to women’s rights through her friendship with First Nation women who lived near her home in Fayetteville. Her house, now a museum, reflects her activity with the Underground Railroad. And she inspired her son-in-law, L. Frank Baum, author of The Wizard of Oz. Dorothy is one of literature’s early independent females. As the fog that emanates from the expression women’s suffrage lifted and the colorful personalities of brilliant, strong, determined women came to light, I appreciated one of my great-aunts for being among the first female graduates of Syracuse University and another for studying law at N.Y.U. In 2015 I hosted a Path through History event at Woodstock Town Hall titled “Facing It: Learning About Northern Slavery Through the Life of Sojourner Truth.” I and others shared recollections of racial attitudes we encountered while growing up—attitudes based on a person’s skin color that are as unjust as judging a person’s worth by their gender. 19
In August 2015, the Woodstock Town Board passed a resolution to mobilize recognition of historic Woodstock women in the women’s rights movement, to fund projects for the 3 years running from 2017 through 2020, to celebrate the New York State and national woman’s suffrage centennials. 2017 is the anniversary of the 1917 victory of women winning voting rights in New York State, and 2020 is the centennial observance of the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution that guaranteed American women the right to vote. The town’s resolution recognizes Woodstock’s tradition of artistic and literary activist expression by women, and that New York State is considered the cradle of the woman’s rights movement in the United States. The resolution encourages individuals, businesses, arts, cultural, and governmental organizations to plan and coordinate events pertaining to local women and their accomplishments. The Historical Society of Woodstock’s summer 2017 exhibit, Gathering Woodstock Women, will feature biographies of scores of women from the past, written by current residents. All information from the exhibit will be added to the society’s archives. The suffrage centennial is expanding rediscovery of productive women’s achievements thoughout New York State. Join in the commemoration. —Olivia Twine
