Description

In early 20th century, different women’s groups in support of suffrage competed for membership. This broadside calls for women to join the Women’s Political Union, founded by Harriot Stanton Blatch, daughter of Elizabeth Cady Stanton. Blatch extended the suffrage movement to the working-class women and became a leader, unifying women from different socioeconomic backgrounds. In 1916, Women’s Political Union merged with Congressional Union, led by Alice Paul, to become the National Woman’s Party.
