EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the resilience and determination of Pauline Adams, an American suffragist who played a significant role in the fight for women's rights. In this portrait taken around 1918, we see Adams wearing the uniform from Occoquan Workhouse, where she was imprisoned for her courageous act of picketing outside the White House. The sepia-toned image exudes a sense of history and strength as Adams stares directly into the camera with unwavering conviction. Her eyes tell a story of defiance against societal norms that denied women their basic rights. Adams' commitment to the suffrage movement is evident in every line etched on her face. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by countless brave women who fought tirelessly for equality.
