Flier for Constance Markievicz Lecture in San Francisco

A flier advertising a lecture by Constance Markievicz in San Francisco in the United States in May 1922. The flier provides a biographical account of her life and political career up to that point. She left government in protest over the adoption of the Anglo-Irish Treaty and was a vociferous opponent of the agreement in the ensuing the Civil War. She travelled to the United States in early 1922 as a republican delegate and her lecture tour in the country (she visited Boston, San Francisco, Chicago, and Philadelphia) aroused considerable interest. Her tour also reputedly raised $50,000 to support the republican cause.
