March 28, 1923 issue

add to cart   close window

Representing the Women Prisoners Defense Association, a group of Irish women recently laid before Congress this "Statement from the Women of Ireland": We come from Ireland to lay before you a statement of the result of the treaty forced on the Irish people a year ago by Great Britain, a treaty which instead of bringing peace has plunged our beloved country into civil war, for which England alone is responsible. For centuries Ireland has been called the Sorrowful Mother, and it is from the women of Ireland we come today, because her men who are fighting for freedom and peace are being executed, tortured, and imprisoned.
