“Miss Woolley on Women’s Ballot” Tract, ca. 1905-1906

The Political Equality Series (alternatively Political Equality Leaflets) were single-page tracts published by the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA) for public education on the topic of women’s suffrage. The tracts were often excerpts from longer speeches by notable activists and politicians. This particular leaflet features a portion of Mount Holyoke President Mary Woolley’s opening remarks given in 1906 at the 38th NAWSA Convention in honor of Susan B. Anthony. Notorious for her own involvement in the women’s education movement, Woolley acknowledges Anthony’s influence on the rights of women educators.
