From Votes for Women to #meToo, the Story of Women’s Rights, Past, Present and Future

Helen Pankhurst will be leading a participatory discussion on women’s lives, reflecting on the changes in the UK since the right to a parliamentary vote was first granted to some women in 1918. The session will be informed by findings from her new book Deeds Not Words: The Story of Women’s Rights, Then and Now. It will include a section looking back at the enduring influence of the suffrages, then explore continuity and change in different aspect of women’s lives over the century and end by looking at priorities going forward.
