Excerpt from Equal Suffrage: Address by Chief Justice Walter Clark of the North Carolina Supreme Court at Richmond, Va., 30, January, 1914
In every land, civilisation has been measured by the status of the women. Among barbarians they are beasts of burden. Among the semi-civilised they are secluded. And among the fanatic followers of Mohammed, embracing one-third of the people of the globe, it is held that they have no souls. Among savage tribes the club of the husband was logical. Under the common law so was the lash, because women being kept in igno rance and deprived of property rights, could be thus governed. But when they were educated and given the right to own prop erty, these things became illogical and impossible. The men of former days showed much more judgment in opposing giving education and property rights to women than do the men of this day who oppose giving them the suffrage.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the arguments for and against women's suffrage, a pivotal moment in the history of gender equality. The author, a prominent jurist and advocate for women's rights, presents a comprehensive analysis of the topic, exploring its historical context and the evolution of attitudes towards women's political participation. The book deconstructs common objections to women's suffrage, arguing that they are based on outdated notions of gender roles and unfounded fears about women's capabilities. By comparing the experiences of countries that have adopted women's suffrage, the author demonstrates the positive impact it has had on societies, enhancing representation, broadening perspectives, and strengthening democratic institutions. Through compelling arguments and a wealth of evidence, this book illuminates the profound significance of women's suffrage as a necessary step towards achieving true equality for all. It challenges conventional biases and invites readers to critically examine the historical and cultural forces that have shaped gender norms. Ultimately, the book serves as a powerful reminder of the ongoing struggle for women's rights and the importance of empowering them to fully participate in the political process.
