Description: Image of a woman blowing a horn to call on a suffrage march and mass meeting Subjects: Cultural Practices Subjects: Gender/Sexuality Keywords: demonstrations Keywords: suffragism Query Subject+Keyword: (Cultural Practices, demonstrations) Query Subject+Keyword: (Gender/Sexuality, suffragism) Comment: The image emphasizes the "belligerent" attitude of suffragist activists in the early 1910s. The woman blows a horn and holds a flag as if she were calling the troops to the fight. This attitude was satirized by many a comic vignette (see records 8575, 8928). On the visual element in British suffragism see Tickner's The Spectacle of Women, filed in record 8428. A large collection of images on American suffragism is in the Library of Congress website By Popular Demand, filed in record 9739.
