    Beyond the Pankhursts: The True Story Behind Women's Rights to Vote with Shalina Patel

    EXPLICIT LANGUAGE WARNING Welcome back to another fiery episode of History Rage! This week, host Paul Bavill is joined by history teacher and author Shalina Patel to delve into the often misunderstood world of Edwardian politics. Together, they tackle the myths surrounding the suffragette movement and the contributions of the Pankhursts. Debunking the Pankhurst Myth: Shalina passionately argues against the belief that the Pankhursts single-handedly won women the right to vote. She highlights the contributions of other organisations and individuals, including the suffragists, working-class women, and even men who supported women's suffrage. The Diverse Suffrage Movement: The NUWSS and WSPU: The peaceful suffragists led by Millicent Fawcett versus the militant suffragettes led by the Pankhursts. Regional and Religious Groups: From the Birmingham National Society for Women's Suffrage to the Jewish League for Women's Suffrage. Specialised Groups: The Women's Tax Resistance League, the Young Hot Bloods, and the Actresses' Franchise League. Working-Class Suffragettes: Shalina sheds light on the often overlooked contributions of working-class women like Selena Martin and Kitty Marion, who faced harsher treatment in prison compared to their middle-class counterparts. The Role of Men: Men also played a crucial role in the suffrage movement, with groups like the Men's Political Union for Women's Enfranchisement using their influence to support the cause. Guest Information: Get Shalina's book "The History Lessons" through the History Rage Bookshop or on Amazon. Follow Shalina on Twitter: @MS_PatelHistory.
