The Woman They Could Not Silence

one woman, her incredible fight for freedom, and the men who tried to make her disappear

Omschrijving

Elizabeth Packard was an ordinary Victorian housewife and mother of six. That was, until the first Woman's Rights Convention was held in 1848, inspiring Elizabeth and many other women to dream of greater freedoms. Incensed and threatened by her growing independence, her husband had her declared 'slightly insane' and committed to an asylum. There, Elizabeth found many like her, incarcerated for daring to have a voice. But just because you are sane, it doesn't mean you can escape the madhouse. Fighting stigma, Elizabeth embarked on a ceaseless quest for justice, ultmately leading to a giant leap forward in human rights the world over.
