The title is a quote attributed to Jill Johnston. Although Qiu Jin's dates are given as 1879-1907 on the poster, they seem to be generally accepted as 1875-1907.
"Qiu Jin (1875–1907) was a Chinese writer & poet, a strong-willed feminist who is considered a national hero in China."(http://www.amazingwomeninhistory.com/qiu-jin-chinese-feminist-revolutionary/)

Ann Sheridan confirmed in a conversation at Jessie Street National Women's Library in June 2019 that she is the designer and printer of this poster.

The poster contains an image of 'Qiu Jin 1879-1907' holding a long knife. Her cloak is purple. The text/title is in black across the bottom of the image.
