Wow! Just learned something new while attending a friend's British citizenship ceremony in Manchester.
That Emmeline Pankhurst was also a Registrar of Births and Deaths [in Manchester]. L

During #EmmelinePankhurst's speaking tour of Scotland she employed a female bodyguard armed with concealed clubs and at least one firearm. The media showed their battle with #police, #ThisDayInHistory in 1914, with cartoons like this one, 'The #Suffragette That Knew Jiu-Jitsu'.
#EmmelinePankhurst & 148 other #suffragettes were arrested in London on #ThisDayInHistory in 1912 for throwing rocks into storefronts across the city, including into 10 Downing Street. Read her own words calling for such militant #NonViolent #DirectAction:

We are here, not because we are law-breakers; we are here in our efforts to become law-makers. ~ #EmmelinePankhurst #quotes #suffragette #democracy #protest
The country house of #DavidLloydGeorge, then Chancellor, was bombed #ThisDayInHistory in 1913. He had promised support for the #suffragettes, but did nothing. #EmmelinePankhurst, leading her #DirectAction campaign, took responsibility, then went on #HungerStrike and was released.
British #suffragettes used #NonViolent #DirectAction, including property crime, to hit gov. & its backers where it hurt. On #ThisDayInHistory in 1913 they smashed windows at #ReformClub, #OxfordAndCambridgeClub, and others. Heed #EmmelinePankhurst's call:

The grave of #emmelinepankhurst in West Brompton cemetery. The Pankhursts have had some criticisms for some of their decisions. But we can’t deny that she was an extraordinary woman and her achievements and legacy deserve respect, on Sunday I’ll be paying said respect. Come along !#suffragettes

A lovely day out at Brompton Cemetery, the final resting place of many fascinating people including Emmeline Pankhurst and Marchesa Luisa Casati. They also have very eerie catacombs!

Biopic Wishful Casting
Who's up for Emmeline Pankhurst (1858~1928), a British political activist, movie starring Sanaa Lathan? lol

El hogar de la sufragista inglesa #EmmelinePankhurst (1858-1928) se convirtió en un lugar de reunión de activistas en favor de los derechos femeninos, de abolicionistas que luchaban contra la esclavitud en Estados Unidos y de defensores de otras causas sociales.
English suffragette leader Emmeline Pankhurst was BOTD in 1858. Tho probably not gay, she cultivated a queer-friendly political culture & politely fended off the affections of #EthelSmyth. #emmelinepankhurst #bornonthisday #queerally #suffragettes

The patriarchy is in power. No female POTUS or Pope in sight. Super rich people are male.
But at least women could vote for a female president. Also, women can complain publicly that they are not being treated equally. Why?

“We have to free half of the human race, the women, so that they can help to free the other half.”

A long overdue pilgrimage from my recent London adventure.
Alas I couldn’t get a selfie with Emmeline as she had been cordoned off for some unglamorous park maintenance work!

How do you change something that has existed forever and that nobody wants to change, the Patriarchy?
To me, Emmeline Pankhurst & Co have changed even more than:
Lincoln
MLK
Malcolm X
