Description
An account of the resource
Cities around the country instituted curfews this week to restrict protest, so it’s a good time to recall when suffragists were out after dark. <br /><br />In 1912, New York City suffragists lit the darkest night of the year with a massive nighttime demonstration. 🮠thread. <br /><br />Only six months after a massive spring march, NYC suffragists wanted to show their power again. <br /><br />Women had won the vote in three new states that year - Kansas, Oregon, and Arizona - and fundraising for a new effort in New York was already underway. <br /><br />They planned the march for 8 p.m. on a Sunday night in the middle of November. The late hour was intended to enable more working women to participate, and to set the stage for a dramatic display. <br /><br />@<a href="https://twitter.com/LCSantangelo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LCSantangelo</a> told the story at @<a href="https://twitter.com/NYHistory" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">nyhistory</a>: <br /><br />The organizers ordered 5,000 Japanese lanterns. In addition, “men planned to wear miners’ lamps, parade marshals to wield batons topped with electric lightbulbs, & automobiles to carry searchlights. Lobbyists expected to create ‘one long blaze of glory’ in support of the ballot.†<br /><br />Not everyone thought this was a great idea. <br /><br />“Some worried that the 8 pm start time would breed a rowdier atmosphere; others fretted about the dangers of returning home once the demonstration concluded. Women might be accepted on the streets during the daytime, but now-- organizers were asking them to march at a time of day when many believed that ‘respectable’ women should not be out in public without male escorts.†<br /><br />It was rainy and cold, but they pulled it off. <br /><br />There was no violence, and showed women were willing to take risks and push boundaries to win. And it looked spectacular. <br /><br />The headline in Monday's Times, above the fold: “400,000 Cheer Suffrage March--20,000 Women in Great Parade--Fifth Avenue a River of Fire.†#Suffrage100Â
