so he denied them police protection, even though alice paul had applied for a permit. instead, the secretary of war, who is part of the presidential cabinet, henry l. simpson put the national -- what we would think of the national guard on stand by in nearby fort myers in virginia. so when the crowd got really unruly and started, basically, man handling and being very aggressive towards the suffragists that's when they literally called in the calvary from virginia and had that group serve as the protectors of the suffragists. so it was quite dramatic in that sense because the suffragists were not expecting these huge, huge crowds. but they did upstage president wilson because the next day was his inaugural speech for his first term as president and almost nobody showed up to his speech and he asked where is everybody and he was told all of the spectators had come out the day before to see the suffragists. on my left, your right is the official program for women's suffrage. you can see, this is one of four existing programs that remain from the parade. you can see how t

and she felt that alice paul could. but alice paul was getting attention for different things than celebrity or fashion. she was getting attention for radical, controversial tactics. judy: just a quick follow-up to that. if these women had wanted to make big contributions, did they have the ability to do that? did they have enough control over the money in their household to do that? johanna: i would hesitate to make a global statement about that but i would guess that most of them, yes. most of them did and most of them did make contributions. i mean, alice paul, as elizabeth said, had -- i mean, alva belmont basically supported alice paul, paid her salary for her whole life and i was just -- i had this magical event last sunday, almost as magical as this -- at woodlawn cemetery in the bronx. they called and they said, i don't know if you know this, but many of the women you write about are buried here and we'd like you to come speak and i was delighted. and they said, and we're going to invite the descendants. i was l

alice was given a life sentence. you spent about 22 years for something that today a lot of people would not even go to jail for. it was horrible. we found out about it. we gave you a commutation. that means we got alice out. she's been so outstanding. i am so proud of you. we are giving alice a full pardon. i just told her. we didn't discuss it. you were in the audience last night. i asked the folks to bring alice over and we will give a full pardon right now. that means you have been fully pardoned. that's the ultimate thing that can happen. that means you can do whatever you want in life and keep doing the great job you are doing. alice has done an incredible job since she's been out and recommending other people. we said how many people are like you? there is only one alice as far as i am concerned. how many people are like you or your circumstance given this massive sentence and they are good people? she said so many are in jail. she is recommending those people. we have already done some that you know are good

lemay explores the national women's party tactics under the leadership of alice paul. >> hi, i'm kate lemay, and i'm the curator of votes for women, a portrait of persistence, which is an exhibition on view at the national portrait gallery at the smithsonian institution. and i'm standing in front of what we call our title treatment. it's a large blowup of headwig lik riker who was a german born actress. during the finnish or the conclusion of the 1913 parade in washington, d.c., andst that just one event of the long suffrage movement that this exhibition highlights, and we have 124 objects that goes into the long history beginning in the 1832 and bringing it right up to 1920, but then also querying the 19th amendment and what it didn't do, which was to enfranchise all women including women of color, so i then took the exhibition right up to the voting rights act of 1965, and so if you'll come with me, we're going to go and explore the 1913 parade more in depth. so we are standing in front of photo postcards of the 1913 parade which was organized by alice paul, and this was a completel

alice paul had been in prison. she is protesting that the government gives paul and other prisoners the privileges of the american political prisoner. the american government did not treat the suffragists as political prisoners. that treated the suffragists as criminals. this meant that there was poor food, no rating, no privileges. given to the suffragists when they are imprisoned. so the suffragists picked up on that immediately and credit banners that spoke to that, to point out -- they created banners to point out that the government have a political activist those privileges. so why didn't the american government do the same for other political activists in the united states, is the question? you can see another beautiful drawing by nina ellenger. she is likening the suffrage effort, where the women are getting grabbed, and assaulted even, by angry men, she is likening that moment, to training for the draft. 1917, the april, united states entered world war i. this is a major moment for suffrage. done the suffr

for that final battle, alice paul was the head of the national women's party, but alice paul did notome down to tennessee for that final battle. , two reasonseason first, the national women's party was struggling for money and donations at the time. for -- alice paul stayed in washington, d.c. and wanted to raise money and get more donations so she could support the efforts in tennessee. she felt like she could play a role at the fundraiser. the other reason was sue white had been born in tennessee and had roots in tennessee. what alice paul concluded was it would be better to have tennessee women advocating and interfacing with legislators in tennessee rather than outsiders. even carrie chapman catt, very involved in nashville, stayed in her hotel room. she did not interface directly with legislators deciding how to vote on the 90 the amendment. she had her supporters from the national american women's suffrage association who had tennessee ties doing that for her. we talked about elizabeth standen and susan b. anthony, who were pioneers in this and what role do they play? andt: sus

but the suffragists, led by alice paul, were the first united states in the sense ever to protest infront of the white house, and they started in 1917. at first, woodrow wilson was lukewarm at their presence. he might tip his hat were exitely nod when he would the white house, but things changed when united states entered world war i, and the suffragist were still outside protesting, and woodrow wilson became very angry. he ordered that they be removed, so the d.c. police started arresting women outside of the white house. approximately, 168 women were arrested outside the white house for the two years in which they protested and served prison time, either in the d.c. jail or in the workhouse, 22 miles south of washington, d.c. host: prison for what? what was the charge? guest: it was obstructing traffic, and of course they were not obstructing traffic, they were standing on the whit sidewalk of the white house. they were acting on the orders to remove the women from the area outside the white house. they were not breaking any laws. they were exercising free speech. just because they

it was organized by alice paul. this was a completely different tactic than what had been done before with other suffragists. i was paul was trying to create's headlines, after spending time in britain she was radicalized by the british suffragists. she learned how to create attention grabbing spectacles and events. when she came back to the united states in 1911 and 12, she then organized with the congressional union, this parade. 8000 suffragists marched down from the capitol here, from the beginning, down pennsylvania avenue. and then they stopped at the treasury building which is basically the end of pennsylvania avenue. the treasury building they have these pageants. in between the suffragists had to make their way through 500 thousand spectators. that is a huge number. one of the problems of this parade is it did not have police protection because the chief was not a friend of suffragists. instead the secretary of war who is part of the presidential cabinet put what we would think of as the national guard on s

alice paul realized her parade -- she was there. she was going to march, and she drove a calf up and down the parade route trying to zig zag through the crowd to back up. it didn't work at all. the crowd just poured back in behind her. finally they literally called in cavalry. they had some mounted officers standing by at ft. myers. they rode their horses into the crowd enough that the parade could fight their way down. instead of the tableau performing in triumph, all the women show up at d.a.r. hall filthy, furious, cold, angry, horrified that this massive crowd of these jerky men have completely ruined what should have been this meticulously planned triumphant day. alice paul realized from the very beginning that it's the best thing that ever could have happened. a lovely parade would be in the news for a day. a near riot would keep the movement in news for the weeks. that's what happened. there was a congressional hearing. the police chief almost lost his job. to notice how good these women were in manipulating the press -- not

the brilliant gemma arterton stars as alice lamb, a reclusive writer living in a south coast villageworld war ii. alice is considered an oddity by the locals, a loner who investigates and debunks myths and folklore, looking for the facts behind the fiction. i don't think it's very interesting. i wrote them. when young evacuee frank shows up unexpectedly on her doorstep, alice has no time for him, insisting that he be rehomed. but inevitably, a bond grows between the pair, with alice warming to her new charge as we learn about the love and loss that haunts her own past and the possibility of magic in the future. was she the one you loved? would you think it was strange? no. written and directed by olivier award—winning playwright jessica swale, summerland is a lovely, heartfelt film about matters of life and death that has its feet on the ground and its head in the clouds. in the central role, arterton, who's also an executive producer, relishes the chance to play a character who doesn't care about what the outside world thinks of her, preferring instead to find refuge in her work. he

i'm not sure i would want to have dinner with alice paul. kerry tutman cat was very funny and very organized. she was the one who had the grassroots organizations in every state and continued to motivate women to build on them. and so if you could kind of take the best of them. personally i also have a role model in my grandmother lindy bogs who was a member of congress, she represented downtown new orleans in the house. and there were very few women in the house. and one of her political mottos was, you could get everything you want to get done as long as you don't take the credit for it. when you think about it, it is pretty radical and also very female. so she was born before women got the right to vote. she was born in 1916 and went on to become a senior member of the u.s. house of representatives an then the ambassador to the vatican. and so the fact that she lived this history and was able to exploit it for her own good ends is -- will always be a role model. >> and watch her daughter and granddaughters. >> yes. it is very matriarchal

alice alice alice alice yeah yeah. my feet and it. almost had gold i had this i know i have a few more. how do i make up their mess. and all my talk back i mean. i'm. 6 6 6 reconciled with the living now must make peace with the did. he not a lovable francisco that year but francisco. anymore. than any other thing and the next aware. that any luck at all michael. i'm not. here but if you want to stay. but if you. compare again boarding. i'm not born then. because the war or not. home. in the shadow of the church where he was taken 43 years ago. tries to take it all with. janet jackson sounding across the desert meaning i'm going to do. what you say is a higher bar she said with actually a view from behind you're. going to. get up. there be good on ya game so messages. be. done babayaro the heat on iraq and. pasties how cute the amount of the room. oh yeah some of the valleys got mandia needham grew out of the i am me some around libya. got now the good news must i am some idea. that be by the same time i am i saying somebody are. now

alice paul and rose winslow, the only two two be force fed because alice -- >> they go on hunger strikes. >> hunger strike but because they're protesting they are political prisoners. ought not to be there and protest a hunger strike. >> first americans to ask for prisoner status. amazing. >> they had to sneak the news out to their friends through the jail bars, throwing rocks out the window, because nobody knew what was happening inside the jail. part of the commune be kags strategy was getting the news out and alice stopped hunger striking, didn't want to be ill, couldn't quit because the newspapers did know about it. >> the only thing she had to read oxford book english verse and somehow scribbled a note on there to announce her compatriots outside, make sure you use this. makes excellent ammunition. somehow smuggled that out. they did. they did. >> not sure that's true. i heard all five daily newspapers delivered to the jail and had her stenographer come once a week to take her correspondence. >> not sure -- >> before put in -- writes her mother that's it's plan. maybe just trying to

but the suffragists, led by alice paul, were the first united states citizens ever to protest in fronte white house. and they started in 1917. at first, woodrow wilson was luke warm at their presence. he might tip his hat at them or politely nod at them when he would exit the north gate of the white house, but things really changed when the you state entered world war i. after the united states was involved in the war effort and the suffragists still remained outside the white house protesting, woodrow wilson grew very angry. and at a certain point in time he ordered from the white house that they be removed. so the d.c. police started arresting women outside of the white house. as it ended up, approximately 168 women were arrested outside the white house for the two years in which they protested and served prison time, either in the d.c. jail or in the workhouse 22 miles south of washington, d.c. >> prison for what? what was the charge? >> it was obstructing traffic. and, of course, they weren't obstructing traffic. they were standing on the sidewalk in front of the white house. it wa

alice paul included because there were stars in the damage from that.so it is very much a hard one battle in this country, one that i hold close to my heart and vote every year. i encourage everyone to do so. but we named it again, an active right and justice because when he did turn the tide, that was part of his speech to congress. but i have to tell you, but we started going to archives unidentified where we would go, we had women from our chives turn to us and almost a whisper go, did you know he was a bad guy? and we would just get it kicked out of that because we are trying to show the records. he did turn the tide and it was a speech in congress that helped the effort. >> some of that is on display at the wilson house and we have a photo of that, correct? >> thanks for the call. >> i agree with everything that was. said we have a terrific repository of archives and my former and employer has the most robust collection of manuscripts and prince, that's because a library of congress was friends with the suffragists, and donated the materials to lib

so alice, it's a full pardon, it's been signed and you might want to keep that one, here it is.pplause] pastor please. >> let's pray together. father, we thank you for the remarkable story of alice johnson, a strong believer in the lord jesus christ whose life was filled with heartache and injustice and yet instead of becoming bitter she chose to trust in you and cried out to you for years asking for relief from the hurt that she was feeling. we thank you that you chose to answer her prayers to you through a great president named donald trump. a great leader who yes believes in law and order, he believes in justice but he also believes in mercy. in thank you for moving in his heart to do this great act today and father i pray that today's full pardon will result in our brand-new life for alice, continue to bless her and her family as they go throughout this nation and sharing the good news that you got with an internal pardon to all who trust in your son the lord jesus christ. we thank you for the president, thank you for the example he set for all of us of what it means to be a

i'm not that crazy alice paul. you know, you needed the real work of lobbying and organizing at the same time. so finally in the fall of 1917 -- i'm sure most of you have heard this story -- a budge of women were sent down to the work house. the warden decided he had had enough. he ordered the guards to pick up the women bodily. for the most part they were sent into a communal area where they stayed together, but there were punishment cells, individual cells. the warden ordered the guard to pick the women up, drag them through the dark to the punishment cells which were unlit, unheated, open toilets, rats, everything horrible. the women were physically picked up and hurled them into these cells. several of them smacked their heads against the cinder block. one woman passed out, the other thought she was dead, she had a heart attack. lucy starts calling out the names. they chain her with her arms above her head in this dark freezing cell all night long for standing on a corner with a sign. this becomes known as the

and alice paul did get permission for her vips to sit there. so there was a live audience for this tablot. that was not the main audience. the idea was this would be published in newspapers all around the country the next day. there are the children in togas. it was march 3rd. it's a little chilly in early march in washington. the children were barefoot on the marble steps. but the parade begins. bugle sounds. the tablot gets the signal to start. they start. they perform their beautiful tablot and then they stand there and in dignified silence. the parade would process in front of them, fold in the back of the parade. and they would perform in triumph. where the tableau would perform again in triumph to a rousing applause from the audience and it would be a great day. so the tableau goes ahead and there is no parade. and the tableau finishes and they're maintaining their poses, no parade. they have no way of knowing where the parade is, why it is held up. it is getting a little cold up there on the treasury steps in their togas and finally they

that is what happened with alice paul. she and carrie catt in 1920 are the leader of the rival women's suffrage organizations. carrie katz national american much bigger, claiming to lien -- 2 million members. alice paul's women's party, much smaller, but very vital. host: when the women were staging the demonstrations, where they putting our lives in danger? what was the public reaction to the public protests? guest: yes they were. from the very beginning there was violence. susan anthony, stanton, lucy stone, were all pelted with rotten eggs, and spoiled vegetables. susan anthony, the great organizer, travel the country back and forth every year, used to say she can mark the progress of the movement by the kind of projectiles that were thrown at her. [laughter] when there were no longer rotten eggs, just just plain eggs, that was progress. their banners were accosted and ripped, their clothes are riapped. they were used to a certain amount of violence. but once the picketing begins, and once president woodrow wilson, who

alice was given a life sentence. and you spent about 22 years. >> yes. >> and for something that today a lot of people wouldn't even be going to jail for. and it was -- it was horrible. and we found out about it. and we gave a commutation, and that means we were able to get alice out, and she has been just so outstanding, and i'm so proud of you. and we're giving alice a full pardon. i just told her. we didn't even discuss it, you were out there. i saw you in the audience last night. and i asked the folks if you could bring alice over. we're going to give a full pardon. we're going to do it right now. that means you have been fully pardoned. that's the ultimate thing that can happen that means you can do whatever you want in life, and just keep doing the great job you're doing. alice has done an incredible job since she's been out. and recommending other people. we said how many people are like you? there's only one alice as far as i'm concerned, but how many people are like you or your circumstance where they were g

alice. alice. alice, i don't believe that you accept that, intellectually.get, you know, i'm not talking about morals. i'm not talking about values. we don't need to. you can't believe that taking down a statue of a confederate leader is rewriting history. it's making a decision about what you do and don't value. you understand that distinction, do you not? >> absolutely, chris. and my point being is that, yes, there are a lot of these statues that have come down, that should come down. but, overall, if -- if the -- if we take this too far, and we're just, anytime someone is offended by something, automatically, removing it. whether, by force or by choice or by vote, that's not the way to go about doing it. some of the statues that have come down, absolutely, should have. but moving forward, we need to make sure that we're doing this, in a way that addresses people that are offended, and want to take these down for all the right reasons. and not do it simply to rewrite history. >> alice, i'll tell you what. when the bases aren't named after people -- i'll te

what alice paul was trying to do was create headlines. after spending some time in britain, she got radicalized by the british suffragette and learned how to create attention grabbing spectacles. when she came back to the u.s. in 1911 and 1912, she organized with the congressional union, this parade. 8000 suffragette marched from the capitol, down pennsylvania avenue, and they stopped at the treasury building. at the treasury building, they had this pageant. in between, they had to make their way through 500,000 -- spectators. that is a huge number. one of the problems was that it did not have police protection because the chief of police in washington dc was not a friend to suffragette. he denied them police protection, even though she had applied for a permit. instead, the secretary of war, part of the presidential cabinet put what we would think of as the national guard on standby in nearby fort myers, in virginia. when the crowd got really unruly and being very aggressive, that is when they literally called in the calvary from virgini

alice, quickly wrap it up. >> joe biden's basement strategy has backfired.hy we're seeing him out on the road. >> robert 15 seconds. >> presidents lead by example. and when this president, the height of a pandemic, violates his own federal government's health and safety standards and holds events that put the public at risk, he's setting a very dangerous example. let's remember as we approach labor day weekend, we saw spikes of coronavirus after memorial day, after july 4th and the president said to the nation, we can have these events without social distancing, without masks and mike pence said, we're going to pray for america. safety comes first. and miracles are found through hard work and respecting science. >> we have to wrap it there. robert zimmerman, alice stewart, great to have you back. >>> we'll be back. ahoyy!

(laughing) bounty, the quicker picker

alice paul refuse it -- alice paul refuses to support the war.e has her picketers out there saying, how can we fight this war for democracy, and you are not giving women democracy at home? so you have this good cop, bad cap and hercarrie approach to wilson and alice paul. also, is that woodrow wilson, as were closes, in november, 1918, early 1919, just when the suffrage amendment is coming to a head in congress, he is trying to get the league of nations past by congress -- passed by congress. he wants this to be his legacy, an international organization that will prevent the kind of war the world has just gone through. so he sees women, who have alleyways and and says women care more -- whom he evaluates and says women care more about peace and they know what war is like and they have lived to this horrible experience recently, they will support the league of nations. they will push their senators and congressmen if they can vote. and so he comes around, partly out of that political calculation, that if his legacy is to be established at all, as

instead, he denied them police protection even though alice had applied for the permit. instead the secretary of war who is part of the presidential cabinet put what we would think of as the national guard on standby in nearby fort myers in irginia. hen the crowd became unruly, and being very aggressive, that is when they literally called in the calvary from virginia and had that group as the protector of the suffragette. it was quite dramatic and that sent because they were not expecting this huge crowd, but the next day was president wilson's inaugural speech for his first term as president. almost nobody showed up to his speech. he asked, where is everybody? he was told all the spectators had come out the day before to see the suffragettes. on your right is the official program. you can see that this is one of four existing program that remain. you can see the joan of arc figures in the purple robe, the color of royalty. walking down the front of the capital with her trumpet and a banner that says votes for women. she is heralding in this new cause for freedom. i ment

under the lead of alice paul they were interested in the federal amendment, to change their referendum to support an amendment, and to convince the legislator in the state to ratify it. nina allender is a great figure in the suffrage movement because helped to popularize it. in the philadelphia academy of fine art, excited to get these objects on the wall in the exhibition to make sure, where the suffrage movement was being taught in its own ranks during the era of the 19 teens. in 1917, alice paul decided to do something even more drastic, down pennsylvania avenue, one of the first groups of picketers that were nonviolent that stood outside the white house, basically declared their protests of the president, that they would carry banners, what will you do for women's suffrage? the president being woodrow wilson, who would carry out two terms as president, in 1919, at this .1915 and in 1917 they pick at the white house, two long years of picketing, every day, stand outside the white house and hold their silence as referred to by the press and they would leave their headquarters in lafa

alice? dinner!ur going around that she "tossed someone's salad" at a party. both episodes fuel her confusion and curiosity about sex. do you think she thinks that i actually tasted wade's salad or whatever? i don't know. when alice attends a residential religious retreat, she's the focus ofjudgemental gossip, which is very painful for her. secretly using the priest's computer to find out what salad tossing really is only makes things worse. awesome! this is a funny, entertaining satire that highlights the blatant hypocrisy of its sanctimonious characters. it's a classic case of those in authority preaching abstinence while secretly indulging, and it's also a warm, nonjudgmental portrait of a smart young girl with raging hormones. while it doesn't tackle lg btq+ themes directly, this reminded me of two great films set in christian gay conversion centres — the comedy—drama the miseducation of cameron post and the more outrageous but i'm a cheerleader. like both of those films, yes, god, yes has a fema

the emotional speech she >>so alice in central park has been signed. you might want to keep that one. >>well president trump he has grant of alice johnson, a full pardon. the action comes 2 years after he did commute her prison sentence. johnson was a first time nonviolent offender she served 21 years and an alabama prison after being convicted on drug charges and on the last night of the republican convention last night she did share her personal story. >>some say you do the crime you do the time. how ever that time should be fair and just 6 months after president trump granted me a second chance he said the first step act into law all it was real justice reform and it brought joy hope and freedom to thousands of whale deserving my faith in justice and mercy was reward it. >>the president again is unity on some sites in 2018 after kim kardashian west pleaded her case. months later the president did sign the first step back what you heard her talking about it was one of the few bills to pass with overwhelming bipartisan support walmart wants to team up

host: let's go to alice. caller: good morning. how are you? host: we are good, how are you?happy sunday. doing ok thank you. i'm curious, though. mention geraldine and sarah palin, hillary allton, and kamala harris in one sentence. i think she stated that geraldine ferraro was the first , i guess to appear on the presidential ticket or something? although she was running for vice president at the time. surely --hy she left chisolm out? shirleyhe difference is not nominated. we were talking about women who were nominated and on the ticket. in 1982.an the first woman to run for president of the united -- at the first woman to run for the president of the united eights, there have been many, but who ran through the primary process. and it really was in many ways -- she would talk about this knew she wasn't going to be elected president of the united states, but she ran in order to raise up issues that concerned the black community and women and poor people and folks from urban areas that were simply not going to get addressed by the mainstream candidates. andran a serious campa

and 12 later alice died in childbirth. as he walked around in a daze and he couldn't stay in the state legislator anymore but had to get away so he had gotten the ranch previously where he might go every now and then out west in the badlands and went for two years and became essentially a cowboy, a rancher in the badlands and said as long as he could write a source 15 hours a day physical activity prevented over thought and he was finally able to sleep at night but later he said this was the best educational asset he could possibly have developed because he developed a love of the land and of open spaces that was commonly associated with his name to the conservation measure. >> his daughter was born then, first daughter named alice. why would he not mention her name ever? why did he kind of ignore her? what was the name -- >> yes, he had a very peculiar attitude toward that which was that once his wife alice died he couldn't bear to even say the name of the little girl who they called alice. he only calls her baby and didn

alice johnson. alice is one of the greatest women i know. she was there. alice spoke. talking about the president gives people second chances. he believes in that. what he's done for the economy. you saw, we had just an incredible convention this week. >> again, hats off to mcdaniel. have time for one more question. i have to go back to the nancy pelosi and others are encouraging joe biden not to do any debates. what you think will happen there and what would that say to the american people if joe biden said you know, i can't debate i just couldn't do it. >> if he doesn't debates, i think he's going to lose and a very big way. i think he knows that. i'm not quite sure what the philosophy is behind nancy pelosi saying don't debates. i can't imagine that she is telegraphing something that's going to come as catastrophic as that would be for the biden campaign. what they're going to do is try to stick with the 29th of september it gets them the early states voting out of the way. and they are going to try to duck in that debate as much as they can. that's going to be the

i am so fortunate to live on the land where alice paul lived and grew up. guest: be still my beating heart. that is wonderful. that was at the national constitution center in philadelphia on january 16. i just wanted to know if anybody has worked with you at this smithsonian? guest: i am so grateful for your call, and if you had not brought up alice paul, i would have. one of the things that we have, and maybe you can show it to our viewers, is a remarkable pin that alice paul and others who were imprisoned for their advocacy literally trying just to get the vote, sent to prison -- you know alice's story is so powerful -- but brought attention to the incredible lengths to which women would go. host: you are seeing that on your screen now. guest: isn't that amazing? we have an amazing collection from alice paul's family, including her suffrage bracelet. she lived a long life, so every time a state would ratify the 19th amendment, she would add it to her charm bracelet. it is one of my favorite things here. thank you. you live on hallowed ground for the suffr
