One element of the civil unrest during the Edwardian and Georgian period was the fight for women's suffrage, with an emphasis on fight. We start Assignment 2 with a look at the issue of women's suffrage and the long hard battle by women (and men too) to finally win the right to vote.
My great-grandma was a suffragette and our family still have her rosettes and badges. Again, one more example of family histories running parallel with grand narratives. Manchester also plays a part in this story.
