Title

Clipping : Should women use violence? Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Pictorial Review. Vol. 14. November 1912

Description

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."
