EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intensity and determination of the Suffragette Window Breaking Campaign, a militant tactic employed by the British women's suffrage movement in the early 1910s. The image shows a notice put in the window of a jewellers shop, located at the height of the campaign's peak in 1912. The notice reads, "Notice: We sympathize with the Suffragettes, but we cannot afford to close our shop." The Suffragettes, led by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), were a group of women who fought for the right to vote and for women's political representation in the UK. Frustrated by the lack of progress through peaceful means, they resorted to more radical tactics, including window smashing, arson, and other forms of property damage. The campaign aimed to draw attention to their cause and put pressure on the government to take action. The photograph provides a glimpse into this pivotal moment in women's history. The broken window in the background and the notice in the foreground serve as a reminder of the sacrifices and challenges faced by the Suffragettes in their quest for women's suffrage. The campaign ultimately succeeded, as women were granted the right to vote in 1918, although it was not until 1928 that they were given the same voting rights as men. This photograph is an important historical record of a significant moment in the fight for women's rights and gender equality.
