    How could have American men been so stupid to keep women from voting until 1919? Unbelievable. We had human beings as SLAVES until Lincoln's time, and we had women unable to vote until 1919, and some places in the South would not let Blacks vote until the 1950's
  • Prosediva said:
    And why did women /allow/ this to continue? You go grls! Kick ass! (No black women in the marchers, you can be sure).
  • In Memoriam: budderflyman said:
    I am a male, but I wish they would have made a law that every other election would have women candidates only. Perhaps we would have gotten into fewer wars.

    Should be Mrs. N. de R. Whitehouse. She was married to James Norman de Rapelye Whitehouse (1858–1949)
  • Art Siegel said:
    This is during the July 5, 1915 Women's Suffrage activities. Mrs. Norman de R. Whitehouse was chairman of the Empire State Campaign Committee, which arranged the events, and also Grand Marshal of the parade after the activities at Bedloe's (Liberty) Island.

    The New York Times account of the day says the group going to Bedloe's (Liberty) Island was taken there aboard the yacht Tourist. I think that is where this photo was taken.
