Violence was used against the suffragettes many times throughout their protest. The Night of Terror was when 33 suffragettes were arrested for protesting outside the White House.

They were after taken to the Occoqquan Workhouse, where they were brutally beaten and tortured in 1977. These moments would be remembered by the suffragettes forever, showing them their actions had consequences. 

Their stories horrified the nation, galvanizing public support for the Women's Suffrage Movement and bringing new momentum which helped pass the 19th Amendment. The freedom of that vote though had come with a cost of trutring 33 women who fought for what they believed in.
