Wright, Almroth, 1861-1947
Gilman discusses recent militant and sometimes violent tactics by suffragists in England and perceptions of violence by women. In order to conduct a fair evaluation of these tactics, she asks: Is violence ever justifiable? Are women ever justified in using violence? Are these English women justified?
She argues against a recent article by immunologist Sir Almroth Wright's letter published in the Times newspaper on March 28, 1912, entitled "Sir Almroth Wright on Militant Hysteria."
