Marching for Equality: Suffrage Hike to Wash'gton (1913)
In this powerful photograph, taken on February 12, 1913 in Newark, New Jersey, "General" Rosalie Jones leads a determined group of suffragists on their historic hike from New York City to Washington D.C. The march is part of the National American Woman Suffrage Association's (NAWSA) efforts to secure voting rights for women.
As they make their way through the city streets, these courageous women are not just exercising their right to vote - they're also challenging societal norms and pushing against centuries-old patriarchal systems that have long denied them a voice in government. With Rosalie Jones at the helm, this group of suffragettes is determined to be heard.
The photograph captures a moment of quiet determination as these hikers pause on their journey, perhaps taking stock of their progress or preparing for the challenges ahead. The image also serves as a testament to the power and resilience of women who have fought tirelessly for equality throughout history.
This iconic print by Bain News Service is just one small part of an ongoing struggle that would eventually lead to the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920, granting American women the right to vote. Today, it serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices and perseverance required to achieve true social change.
