Description
In the early 20th century, women in England were demanding the right to voteand often faced violent retaliation. Rather than back down, the suffragist group the Women's Social and Political Union formed an all-women security unit. Activist leader Emmeline Pankhurst asked Edith Garrud to train them. These "jujitsuffragettes" fought against abuse and arrest while pursuing long overdue rights. Edith Garrud was a pioneering instructor of women's self-defense and a pivotal figure in British womens suffrage. This graphic retelling of Garrud's life reveals the resilience and (sometimes physical) resistance of her era's voting-rights activists.
