‘I Cannot Think’: An Anti-Suffrage Monologue at the Redmond Library
March 15, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
FreeFor adults and teens.
What woman wouldn’t want the right to vote? You would be surprised!
It’s 1915, the 19th Amendment is shortly to pass, but Mrs. W. Winslow Crannell is dithering about the terrible disasters that will befall the country if women become voters. She’s serious . . . and hilarious!
I Cannot Think: An Anti-Suffrage Monologue is a satirical piece written by pro-suffragist Marie Jenney Howe in 1913. It was used as a propaganda piece by the women’s suffrage movement in the final years before the ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920.
