Changing Memories: The Woman's Journal Quote
Transcript
Massachusetts always celebrates the Battle of Bunker Hill. Bells are rung; cannon fired; there are speeches, parades, music, and a general holiday. But in that battle the Americans were defeated. All the same the battle is celebrated for the justice of the cause, which, because it was just, was triumphant. The woman suffrage battle is like that of Bunker Hill—not won to-day, but sure to be later. Meantime Bunker Hill monument is our monument.
