Description: In these speeches, Emmeline Pankhurst and other leading militant suffragists defend themselves against the charges of damaging city property in their attempt to publicize the issue of women's suffrage. They illustrate the complexity of the issue and the ambivalence of the court which found them guilty of damaging city property yet acknowledged the virtues of the cause for which they were fighting.
