EDITORS COMMENTS
In the early days of the women's suffrage movement, the fight for gender equality was a source of intense passion and controversy. This haunting image captures the unsettling reality of the suffrage struggle, as a man wakes up to find himself face to face with a suffragette ghost in the dead of night. Dressed in a shroud and holding a gun to his head, the ghost's expression is one of unyielding determination as she brandishes a Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) placard. The year is circa 1907, a time when suffragettes were making their voices heard through peaceful protests and civil disobedience. However, their actions were met with resistance and even violence from those who opposed women's right to vote. This nightmare scene serves as a chilling reminder of the intense emotions and tensions that surrounded the suffrage movement during this period. The inclusion of the VFW placard in the ghost's hand adds an intriguing layer of complexity to the image. The VFW was an organization primarily made up of military veterans, and it is unclear whether the ghost is using the placard as a symbol of power or to represent the idea that the suffrage movement was encroaching on traditional male domains. Regardless of the intended meaning, this photograph is a powerful reminder of the intense emotions and passions that surrounded the women's suffrage movement in the early 20th century. It is a snapshot of history that continues to resonate with us today, as we reflect on the progress that has been made towards gender equality and the work that still needs to be done.
