20 h 25 m, 22 oct 1917 año - Alice Paul arrested and jailed
Descripción:
Alice Paul, the main face of the NWP, was arrested and sentenced to seven months in prison for being part of the “Silent Sentinels” march. She was one of more than 500 that were arrested during the “Silent Sentinels” and one of 168 that was sentenced jail time. During her time in jail, she lived in very harsh conditions, so to protest she went on a hunger strike and in return was force-fed. This is important because many women were fighting for her to be released and the fact that she went on a hunger strike and had to be force-fed was very impactful to people around the country.
