London. — A retrospective reivew of the performances of the militant suffragettes of England — the “wild women,” the “bashi bazoukesses,” the “brawler squads,” as they have variously called — i s startling for the pyramid of offenses, crazy and grave, which they have perpetrated with the idea of securing the vote — an orgy of arson, assault, riot, mischief, self imprisonment, immolation and suffering.

Why We Chose It
First of all, Bashi Bazoukesses! What that we would see such creative pejoratism form today’s pundits. But also, look at how those who are fighting for rights are painted down through the years. The lengths that desperate people will go to for their beliefs and the manner in which they will be painted — especially by those who enjoy those same rights — is a theme that is circling back in our own moment.
