EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "A.B.C of Politics for Women Politicians," features an intriguing assembly of trailblazing women who made their mark in British politics during the early 1900s. The image, taken in 1910, showcases three prominent suffragettes: Mary Lowndes, C. Hedley Charlton, and Dora Meeson Coates. Mary Lowndes, the woman on the far left, was a suffragette leader and a tireless advocate for women's rights. She was a founding member of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU) and was known for her militant tactics, including arson and window-breaking. Her unwavering commitment to the cause earned her numerous arrests and a six-month prison sentence. C. Hedley Charlton, the woman in the middle, was also a prominent suffragette and a member of the WSPU. She was a prolific writer and speaker, using her eloquence to spread the message of women's suffrage. Charlton was arrested multiple times for her activism and was sentenced to three months in prison. Dora Meeson Coates, the woman on the right, was a suffragette and a labor activist. She was a member of the Independent Labour Party and was a strong advocate for women's suffrage and workers' rights. Meeson Coates was arrested several times for her activism and was sentenced to three months in prison. The baby in the photograph is believed to be Bessie Charlton, the daughter of C. Hedley Charlton. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices and determination of these women who fought for women's suffrage and paved the way for future generations of women politicians. This historic image is a testament to the resilience and courage of the suffragette movement and the enduring legacy of these remarkable women.
