Sometimes your heroes really disappoint. <br /><br />I’m not talking about Stanton or Anthony or Alice Paul. I’m talking about Ray Frank. <br /><br />Frank was the first Jewish woman to preach from a pulpit in the US - before a crowd of 1,000 people. Thread. <br /><br />The story is that she arrived in Spokane WA on the eve of Rosh Hashana 1890 to find a tiny Jewish community so fractious that no service was planned. She said she’d give the sermon if a minyan - surely of men - could be found. Her offer was announced in that evening's paper... and a crowd gathered. @<a href="https://twitter.com/umanskyellen" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">UmanskyEllen</a> says she preached that night, the next day and on Yom Kippur, launching a proto-rabbinic career. Though never ordained, she created congregations throughout the west. She was offered a job leading a congregation in Chicago, which she declined. <br /><br />Frank was there in 1893 at the founding of @<a href="https://twitter.com/NCJW" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NCJW</a>👇She delivered a formal address on Women in the Synagogue at the Jewish Women’s Congress. <br /><br />But she opposed women’s suffrage. <br /><br />Her speech “The Jewish Woman and Suffrage†was . . . against. <br /><br />Though herself unmarried and kid-free, she argued that Jewish women should focus on their domestic lives. <br /><br />In an 1895 newspaper interview, Frank said “I am not a suffragist because I do not believe that a woman can properly fulfill her home duties and be out in the world, too.â€<br /><br />Not only did she eschew voting for women; she would gladly restrict the vote to select men. In the same interview she said the right to vote should be “granted strictly according to the intelligence and capacity of the individual for government.†<br /><br />Ray Frank married at age 40 and retired from public life. Her husband was an economics professor. They settled in Illinois and for the next 40 years she volunteered with local groups, including her synagogue and eventually the League of Women Voters. #Suffrage100Â

<strong>Black women at the Inaugural March, part II</strong><br /><br />A large Illinois delegation--some accounts say 62 people, others 65--came to Washington for the 1913 inauguration suffrage march. #IdaBWells was the only African American in the group. She represented the new Alpha Suffrage Club in Chicago. Thread.<br /><br />Two months before, Ida had co-founded Alpha with two white women, Virginia Brooks & Belle Squires. It differed from the Women’s Second Ward Republican Club, which Ida organized in 1910. The Republicans' star was dimming, and being tied to the party was no longer an asset. <br /><br />Alpha was non-partisan, city-wide, and suffrage-focused. Some Black women were skeptical about about the movement, given discrimination by white suffragists and a fear that suffrage➡️more votes for white supremacy. But Ida was determined to engage Black women to win the fight. <br /><br />Alpha Suffrage Club’s first order of business was to send the women to Washington for the march. When they all arrived, the Illinois delegation went to parade headquarters. A Chicago Tribune reporter accompanied the group for the whole trip and reported on what transpired. <br /><br />Grace Trout, leader of the Illinois delegation, burst into the room and announced that Ida couldn’t march with them. She said it wasn’t up to her, it was the decision of NAWSA, Alice Paul, and Alice Stone Blackwell. She claimed they had no choice.<br /><br />A Georgia-born woman from Oak Park agreed: “You are right, it will prejudice southern people against suffrage if we take colored women into our ranks.” Ida was standing right there, and had been a prominent Illinois suffragist longer than most of the women in the room. <br /><br />Absolutely not, said Ida's colleague Virginia Brooks. “We have come down here to march for equal rights. If the women of other states lack moral courage...we are not afraid of public opinion. If the women didn't stand by their principles, the parade will be a farce.” <br /><br />Ida's voice trembled as she spoke about the harm to the cause, not the personal insult. “If the Illinois women do not take a stand now in this great democratic parade then the colored women are lost.” <br /><br />Grace Trout said she’d try, then left to negotiate. Returning, she said that if it were up to her, Ida would march with them, but NAWSA said no. <br /><br />Do you think IdaBWells accepted this? Have you met her? <br /><br />Tune in tomorrow . . .

<strong>Black women at the Inaugural March, part III</strong><br /><br />Ida B Wells is the hero of our story. At the 1913 suffrage march she was 50 years old, mother of 4, an established community leader in Chicago. <br /><br />But since white women are looking for anti-racist models, let’s spend a moment on Ida’s colleagues Virginia Brooks & Belle Squire.🧵 <br /><br />When we left off, the Illinois suffrage delegation had just confirmed that Ida was being booted from the group at the insistence of the organizers. Virginia Brooks objected, loudly. She and Belle Squire had co-founded the new Alpha Suffrage Club with Ida. [<a href="https://twitter.com/DailySuffragist/status/1278156775007686658" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><span>Alpha Suffrage Club arrives in Washington</span></a>]<br /><br />Belle Squire was Ida’s contemporary. She founded the No Vote, No Tax League, first in Cook County and then throughout the state. She led more than 5,000 Illinois women in refusing to pay taxes until they could vote. She is on the right👇ðŸ¾in 1911. So much in this photo. <br /><br />Belle got attention for insisting on being called “Mrs†Squire, though she was not married. “Why should a woman remain Miss until death or marriage?" she asked. "The boy changes his title from master to mister as soon as he wishes--as soon as he gets into long pants <br /><br />"and is introduced to a razor. They say it's confusing. They will not know then whether we are single or married. I don't think it is anybody's business what we are. Why should we be obliged to print our marital relations on our business cards? Men don't." 🔥🔥🔥 <br /><br />Virginia Brooks was 27, a generation younger than Belle and Ida. She grew up in Hyde Park, where her parents owned boardinghouses. When her father died, she inherited property in West Hammond (now Calumet City), on the Illinois/Indiana border. She and her mother moved there. <br /><br />Illinois women won school suffrage back in 1891. In 1912 Brooks ran for West Hammond school board and won. In addition to her local political work, her suffrage activity spanned Illinois and Indiana. She was an active member of the Illinois Equal Suffrage Association. <br /><br />When Ida was ejected from the Illinois delegation, Virginia Brooks & Belle Squire announced that they would join her if she were willing to march in a different section. Ida appeared to consent. Shortly thereafter everyone left to assemble for the march. <br /><br />As the delegation lined up, all three women were missing. Virginia Brooks appeared & went looking for the other two. She found Belle Squire but not Ida. The two of them concluded she had decided to boycott, understandably. Then, as they began to march,<br /><br />“Suddenly from the crowd on the sidewalk Mrs. Barnett walked calmly out to the delegation and assumed her place at the side of Mrs. Squire. There was no question raised . . . and she finished the parade.†Photo👇ðŸ¾ran in the Chicago Tribune. #BlackSuffragists #CenturyofStruggle

Ida B at work. Another glimpse of the master persuader, via the beautiful 2d edition of her autobiography. Great foreword by @<a href="https://twitter.com/eveewing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">eveewing</a> & afterword by @<a href="https://twitter.com/MichelleDuster" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MichelleDuster</a> about preserving the legacy. 🧵 <br /><br />In 1900 the Chicago Tribune runs stories lauding the benefits of segregated schools. They interview racist local parents and superintendents of segregated systems in St. Louis, Baltimore & Washington DC. <br /><br />Ida’s husband observes that @<a href="https://twitter.com/chicagotribune" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">chicagotribune</a> is on a segregationist crusade. <br /><br />Ida writes the editor, pointing out that “everybody had been quoted on the subject of separate schools except those most vitally concerned--the Negroes.†She asks if he’ll meet with a delegation to discuss. <br /><br />The editor doesn’t reply, so Ida shows up at his office. <br /><br />He ignores her, assuming any Black woman at his doorstep is soliciting funds for her church. Ida laughs it off and demands his attention. <br /><br />He is utterly unsympathetic to the school segregation question, and they move quickly to the heart of the matter: political power. <br /><br />“He said that he did not believe that it was right that ignorant Negroes should have the right to vote and to rule white people [when] they were in the majority.†<br /><br />Ida replies that she doesn’t think “white men in the First Ward flophouses†are any more worthy of the franchise. <br /><br />“Even so, I was not disposed to condemn all white people because of that situation nor deprive the better class of them of their rights in the premises.†<br /><br />The editor says he doesn’t have time to waste on a meeting, but he’ll publish her letter, space permitting. <br /><br />“I told him that the delegation of Negroes whom I had hoped to bring to him would not waste his time, because they were too busy at their different occupations and could ill afford to waste their time or his own in fruitless discussion.†🔥💜 <br /><br />The editor, Robert W. Patterson, belonged to one of the most powerful families in Chicago. His father-in-law was Joseph Medill, owner of the Tribune & Mayor of Chicago in the 1870s. Ida knows a boycott won’t work - the community is too small. So she changes strategy. Jul <br /><br />Ida asks Jane Addams to invite the leading citizens of Chicago to Hull House @<a href="https://twitter.com/JAHHM" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">JAHHM</a> for a meeting that Sunday. <br /><br />Addams gathers editors of the competing papers, ministers and rabbis, white club women, and members of the Board of Ed to hear Ida make the case. <br /><br />“I told how separate schools always meant inferior schools for Negro children while at the same time making a double tax burden. I told of my interview with the editor of the Tribune and how I had been made to realize that there was absolute indifference to whatever the Negro thought or felt about the matter...It was their civic and financial influence which the Tribune respected...Would they use that power to help us, the weaker brothers, secure here in Chicago an equal chance with the children of the white races?†<br /><br />It works. As a result of Ida’s effort, Jane Addams leads a group of seven eminent Chicagoans to meet with the Tribune. The articles stop. The @chicagotribune doesn’t shill for segregated schools again during Ida’s lifetime. #BlackSuffragists #CenturyofStruggle #Vanguard

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
