Woman's Suffrage, Jailed for Freedom Pin,1917

In 1917, Silent Sentinels, organized by the NWP, stood in silent vigil outside of the White House as a strategy to raise awareness for woman suffrage. More than 90 of the Silent Sentinels were arrested on charges of obstructing traffic and were sent to prison where they were beaten, force fed, and suffered countless indignities. The publicity of their mistreatment was instrumental in changing the opinions of the public and of Congress regarding woman suffrage. Silver pins shaped like a jail cell door with a heart-shaped padlock were given by the National Woman’s Party to each of the women jailed for freedom. Harris & Ewing, 1917 (cropped and cleaned).
