La Citoyenne was a French feminist newspaper, founded, funded, and edited by Hubertine Auclert, with the primary aim of promoting women’s suffrage. Auclert, the leader of France’s fledgling suffrage movement from 1880 to her death in 1914, lived in Algeria from 1888-1892. This experience intensified and shaped her already existing interest in the colony. La Citoyenne, published from 1881-1891, was the first French feminist newspaper to address questions of empire. The opening article, “Le république menace par le cabaret” (“The Republic Menaced by the Cabaret”), Hubertine Auclert argued that the health of the republic depended on women gaining the right to vote. In “Le célibat de nos compatriots a l’étranger” (“The Celibacy of our Overseas Compatriots”), the pseudonymous author Jeanne Voitout (“All-seeing Jeanne,” likely Hubertine Auclert) examined the shortage of French women willing to live in the colonies. She argued the shortage created a lack of suitable wives for Frenchmen in those colonies. She suggested that the problem could be ameliorated by hiring French women into official colonial positions. The piece, “Le loi sur les recidivists et les dompteuses des fauves humains” (“The Law on Recidivists and the Taming of the Wild Humans”), argued that the recent law on recidivism, which mandated sending these criminals to overseas prison colonies, was a waste of resources. Instead, the author contended that women could civilize the criminals with compassion. The article, “Position de la femme Tonkinoise” (“Position of the Tonkin Woman”), was the second of a three-part report on Tonkin laws regarding women.
