Ida B. Wells could vote for President years before Alice Paul or Carrie Chapman Catt. How? Read on <br /><br />Changing state constitutions is hard. Who votes & who doesn’t is determined by each state; big changes almost always need constitutional amendment. Of course, this is why the state-by-state fight took so damn long. But in 1913, Illinois successfully used a different strategy. <br /><br />Lucy Stone’s husband Henry Blackwell began pushing for “presidential suffrage” back in the 1880s. It was a clever idea: a way to get states to let women vote for President without the laborious process of amending their constitution. Here's how:<br /><br />As we know all too well, the President of the United States is chosen by Electors, not voters. Each state makes its own rules about HOW to choose its Electors, and it can usually change those rules with a majority vote of the state legislature. <br /><br />If a state legislature let women vote for Electors it was a kind of proxy vote for President. Illinois women won “school suffrage”--voting for school board--in 1891. Almost immediately, a Chicago lawyer named Catharine Waugh McCulloch began pushing to add presidential suffrage. <br /><br />McCulloch was a lawyer and a feminist. She graduated in 1886 from @<a href="https://twitter.com/NorthwesternLaw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NorthwesternLaw</a>; when she joined her husband’s law firm they renamed it McCulloch & McCulloch. Rev. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw performed their wedding. ‼️ Catharine was admitted to the Supreme Court Bar in 1898.<br /><br />Catharine McCulloch wrote state legislation giving women equal guardianship of their children (1901) and raising the age of consent (1905). For two decades as a leader of the Illinois Equal Suffrage Assoc. she lobbied in Springfield for presidential suffrage.<br /><br />She was a Justice of the Peace in Evanston, the first woman elected to the job. She was also a friend of #IdaBWells. Paula Giddings notes: “both exhibited a bulldog determination and did not suffer fools lightly.” <br /><br />In 1912, Grace Trout took over from Catharine as head of the Illinois Equal Suffrage Assoc. Trout was more mainstream, less threatening to legislators and potential supporters. She was not a friend of Ida's - she’s the one who tries to eject Ida from the Washington, DC march. <br /><br />Immediately after the DC march, Trout led a huge mobilization of women to Springfield. They got the presidential suffrage bill passed. Their effort included phone banking that rang the speaker of the House every 15 minutes for 3 days; whipping floor votes and sending taxicabs to fetch absent legislators, and a cohort of Black lobbyists led by Ida. Ida’s group wasn’t there only for suffrage. <br /><br />Three anti-Black bills were also pending: an anti-miscegenation bill, a streetcar segregation bill, and a bill to help white unions oust Black railroad employees. Ida and several hundred Black women successfully defeated all three bills. <br /><br />[The Chicago Defender reported that the author of the Jim Crow transportation bill was quite awed - “he declared he had never met so many brilliant persons of color before” and regretted the whole thing.]<br /><br />We can assume that Ida’s group lobbied for suffrage - some of them were members of the Alpha Suffrage Club that Ida, Belle Squire, and Virginia Brooks had founded at the beginning of that year. I don’t know if Squire & Brooks went to Springfield. @<a href="https://twitter.com/LOsborne615" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LOsborne615</a> do you? <br /><br />I don’t know if they or any other white women lobbied against the racist bills. I know they all celebrated together when they won. The Governor signed the bill in June 1913, and an automobile procession drove Michigan Avenue with more than 100 cars, marching bands, and flags. <br /><br />A car parade sounds funny today, but cars were still a bit of a novelty then, and all open-air so they felt more like floats wrapped in bunting. Ida was a parade marshal, and five of the cars carried Alpha Suffrage Club members. <br /><br />Alpha & the Illinois Equal Suffrage Association held celebrations that summer - they both honored Robert L. Jackson, the only Black legislator, who spoke in favor of the suffrage bill on the floor, and Catharine Waugh McCulloch. This is Catharine, after the win. <br /><br />So within months of the 1913 Washington, DC Inauguration march where Black women were relegated to the back, #IdaBWells and the other women from Illinois had secured their right to vote for President. #BlackSuffragists #Suffrage100 #19thAmendment

At the turn of the century, leading white suffragists deluded themselves into thinking that colluding with racists would help their cause. <br /><br />Spoiler alert: it didn’t.<br /><br />Thread. <br /><br />The new generation of suffrage leaders - with the blessing of the old guard - fantasized that they could break new ground in the south. Western state victories had petered out, and they’d suffered painful losses in NY & Calif. <br /><br />Maybe southern white men would support the cause... <br /><br />...though they never had before. Maybe women could expand local suffrage, add a state or two, and build support for a federal amdt. <br /><br />How? By appealing to white solidarity. Southern men might be willing to support votes for women IF only “educated” (read: white) women could vote. <br /><br />State leaders like Laura Clay of Kentucky and Kate Gordon of Louisiana pushed this idea. (More TK on their eye-popping legacy.) <br /><br />ElizCadyStanton and Susan B Anthony approved it. <br /><br />Stanton & Anthony’s successors, Carrie Chapman Catt & Anna Howard Shaw, thought it was a good idea.<br /><br />At the NAWSA conference in Atlanta, the one where they cheered for the President of the Confederacy, Catt said: “There is a race problem everywhere. In the North and the West, it is the problem of the illiterate immigrant; in the South it is the problem of the illiterate negro. <br /><br />"The solution of the race problem is the same everywhere, the enfranchisement of women with an educational qualification.” <br /><br />This wasn’t a brand new idea. Stanton had been sympathetic to it a long time, and she wasn’t alone. Way back in 1867, Lucy Stone’s husband Henry Blackwell addressed a broadside to the leaders of the former slave-holding states: “Your four millions of Southern white women will counterbalance your four millions of negro men and women, and thus the political supremacy of your white race will remain unchanged.” <br /><br />Yup, the same Henry Blackwell who co-founded the American Woman Suffrage Assoc, the faction that supported the 15th Amdt. For supporting voting rights for Black men, Stone & Blackwell have been awarded undeserved anti-racist cred. <br /><br />Tomorrow:Jim Crow doesn’t need help from a girl.

Description
An account of the resource
South Dakota became a state in 1899. Its motto: “Under God the People Rule.” National suffrage leaders converged on the state immediately to campaign for a doomed suffrage amendment. Its motto: “Women Are People.” A #StateOfTheWeek thread <br /><br />White women in the Dakotas had sought the vote since at least 1883, but the territorial legislature worried it might hurt their chance for statehood. When North & South Dakota were admitted to the union, neither Native men nor any woman could vote. <br /><br />Eleanor Flexner summarizes: ]“The South Dakota campaign in 1890 was one of the most rigorous that suffrage workers ever endured -- blazing hot all summer, while the 75-yo Susan B Anthony and the veteran Henry Blackwell (a mere 65) toured the state, and freezing cold during Mrs. Catt’s tour in the fall. <br /><br />“In addition, living conditions were ‘primitive,’ and all the speakers had to cover immense distances. The decision for the newly united suffrage association to enter the campaign had hinged on pledges of support from farm and labor organizations." <br /><br />But... “when the campaign was already under way, the Knights of Labor and the Farmers Alliance launched a 3rd party, which refused to encumber itself with the controversial issue of votes for women. <br /><br />"The outcome was a defeat of almost 2-to-1, after a murderous campaign: “Mrs. Catt came down with typhoid fever immediately afterward and very nearly died, and when Miss Anthony returned to her home in Rochester, her sister Mary commented that for the first time she realized that Susan was growing old.” <br /><br />A referendum the same day to enfranchise Native men failed too. The massacre at Wounded Knee took place two months later. #StateOfTheWeek #CenturyofStruggle
