These activists organized and marched in major suffrage parades in New York and Washington, D.C. The movement had already divided between moderates and militants. In 1917, after the U.S. entered World War I, the rift widened further over how to respond to the conflict. On one side were activists who argued that suffragists should give patriotic support to the war effort. On the other side were those who advocated criticizing President Woodrow Wilson for his refusal to support a national suffrage amendment. The latter carried on with public protests despite attacks on their patriotism, some even sacrificing themselves physically for the cause.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7a69ee elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"f7a69ee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-ce0df42 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ce0df42\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-e6057ef\" data-id=\"e6057ef\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-63b6dc4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"63b6dc4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/vclibrary.vassarspaces.net\/votes-for-women\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/20_07_28_SuffrageEx_SColl_large-2-scaled.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"Banner used by Elsie Hill (Class of 1906) during Connecticut suffrage events in 1913.\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NTQxLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczpcL1wvdmNsaWJyYXJ5LnZhc3NhcnNwYWNlcy5uZXRcL3ZvdGVzLWZvci13b21lblwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyMFwvMDhcLzIwXzA3XzI4X1N1ZmZyYWdlRXhfU0NvbGxfbGFyZ2UtMi1zY2FsZWQuanBnIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vclibrary.vassarspaces.net\/votes-for-women\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/20_07_28_SuffrageEx_SColl_large-2-scaled-qm4arp0hz0zpbs59jljbcjrb29157mvpwdqt9cbri8.jpg\" title=\"Banner used by Elsie Hill (Class of 1906) during Connecticut suffrage events in 1913.\" alt=\"Banner used by Elsie Hill (Class of 1906) during Connecticut suffrage events in 1913.\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-3ad1d4d\" data-id=\"3ad1d4d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4a76f4d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4a76f4d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #861f41;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #861f41;\"><strong>Banner used by Elsie Hill (Class of 1906) during Connecticut suffrage events in 1913.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #861f41;\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-eaf0a9f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"eaf0a9f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-7742430\" data-id=\"7742430\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c81113a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c81113a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #861f41;\"><strong>M<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #861f41;\"><strong>ary Culver Pollack (Class of 1917) letter (22 September 1915) and envelope w. &#8220;Votes for Women&#8221;
