Pankhurst, galvanised women and men to campaign for Votes for Women.
Professor Mary Davis, leading biographer of
Sylvia Pankhurst, will speak, and Cllr Rachael Saunders will present her
research on the campaigning methods and tools used by suffragettes in the east
end of London. The chair is Kathryn Perera, Chief Executive of Movement for
Change, the home of community organising in the Labour Party.
