The Pankhurst Women
If this series doesn’t inspire every woman to exercise her right to vote, then what possibly could? It’s humbling to listen to and realize just what extraordinary lengths women went through to simply be heard. We can feel our vote won’t make a difference, but it *can’t* make a difference if we don’t go to the booth. Considering women in the US have only had the right to vote for about 104 years, how sad is it that so many of us don’t know just how hard-fought and hard-won those rights are. It’s wasn’t achieved with marches. It took so much more. The movement started and grew with The Pankhursts in Brittain. Their extraordinarily brave battle was waged against a brutally vengeful government who viewed women as an existential threat to their control. Women were supposed to think and believe what their husbands and ruling men told them. What threatened these men most was that they could lose power and influence if women were given the opportunity to vote and disagree. They feared what would happen when women realized how little they were protected by the laws dictated and designed to keep them in their place.

Hooked immediately! I love the way the story is told and the way the hosts are able to add some lightness into it means it’s interesting and entertaining. They have great chemistry. Can’t wait for the next episode.

Love Alice Levine and Matt Forde, very good podcast interesting and well presented, with plenty of humour and humanity. Just more adverts than podcast.
