EDITORS COMMENTS
June 29, 1909: A Defiant Stand for Women's Suffrage This historic photograph captures a pivotal moment in the fight for women's suffrage in the United Kingdom. The image shows a police-guarded deputation led by Emmeline Pankhurst, the prominent suffragette leader, making their way through a large crowd in London. The scene unfolds as Mrs. Pankhurst gives the signal for action, resulting in 108 arrests. The women, determined to make their voices heard, had resorted to violent tactics to demand the right to vote. In this instance, Emmeline Pankhurst is seen boldly slapping the face of a genial inspector, an act that would ignite a would-be riot. The crowds, a mix of supporters and onlookers, watch in anticipation as the situation unfolds. Amidst the chaos, some women on the outskirts of the crowd find amusement in breaking plate-windows. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the intense emotions and determination that fueled the suffragette movement during this period. The struggle for women's suffrage would continue for several more years, with the Representation of the People Act finally granting some women the right to vote in 1918. This photograph, taken by the Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans, provides a glimpse into a significant event in the history of women's rights activism. It is a poignant reminder of the courage and resilience of the suffragettes and their unwavering commitment to securing the vote for women.
