Suffragists recognized that the media played an essential role in
the women's suffrage movement and the public's understanding of it.
From parades to going to jail for voting, activists played to the
mass media of their day. They also created an energetic niche media
of suffragist journalism and publications.This collection offers
new research on media issues related to the women's suffrage
movement. Contributors incorporate media theory, historiography,
and innovative approaches to social movements while discussing the
vexed relationship between the media and debates over suffrage.
Aiming to correct past oversights, the essays explore overlooked
topics such as coverage by African American and Mormon-oriented
media, media portrayals of black women in the movement, suffragist
rhetorical strategies, elites within the movement, suffrage as part
of broader campaigns for social transformation, and the influence
views of white masculinity had on press coverage. Contributors:
Maurine H. Beasley, Sherilyn Cox Bennion, Jinx C. Broussard, Teri
Finneman, Kathy Roberts Forde, Linda M. Grasso, Carolyn Kitch,
Brooke Kroeger, Linda J. Lumsden, Jane Marcellus, Jane Rhodes,
Linda Steiner, and Robin Sundaramoorthy
