“You should have 2 women (Suffragettes) chained to a fence, wearing the Votes for Women sash, like they used to wear when they chained themselves to the Whitehouse, with someone using a bolt cutter to break them free and 1 or 2 walking from the fence, waving the Votes for Women flag. This depiction was the closest I could get to what my idea was.”
My grandmother was a suffragette in DC. Her name was Alice Esteva Williams, or Alicia Esteva. She was one of the ladies that would bail the fence ladies out of jail. She was fierce and I am proud to call her me grandmother.
