1936-09: (Jeanne Perez Takes the Readership North: In September 1936 Jeanne Perez Taking the Readership of La Voix des Femmes on a Journey North, Her Editorial Choice for the Newspaper’s Cover Art Being a Map with the Direction Clear, Like Many Who Made the 120-Mile Trip from Port-au-Prince to the Old Capital City Cap-Haïtien Perez Taking the Readers on an Additional Trek Several Miles South to Milot and Up the 3,000-Foot Bonnet à l’Évêque Mountain to the Citadelle Henry): In September 1936, Jeanne Perez took the readership of La Voix des Femmes on a journey north. Her editorial choice for the newspaper’s cover art was a map, and the direction was clear. Like many who made the 120-mile trip from Port-au-Prince to the old capital city Cap-Haïtien, Perez was taking the readers on an additional trek several miles south to Milot, and up the 3,000-foot Bonnet à l’Évêque mountain to the Citadelle Henry. The feminist newspaper was becoming a vehicle for pilgrimage, its pages a road map to the revolutionary past that the LFAS claimed as their inheritance.
