About This Item
[Virginia]: [Equal Suffrage League of Virginia], 1918. 8 x 6", leaflet, 4pp. A pro-suffrage response to a statement by the Virginia Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage, signed in type by Lila Mead Valentine, a leading Virginia suffragist and education reformer, as president of the Equal Suffrage League of Virginia, and published during World War I. Valentine writes that granting women the vote would help, rather than hinder, the war effort, rebutting an argument to that effect by the "antis". She also writes that women's suffrage would not get in the way of white supremacy in the south: "To assume that white women would be less interested than white men in maintaining white supremacy is equally wide of the mark." Toning and creasing to paper, small stain to front cover, chipping along upper margin with loss to a few letters of text.
