Acting Banners Chains Costumes Four People Only Railings Suffragettes Uk Social History Uniform Mixed Age Range


EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to a significant moment in history - the fight for women's rights. Three courageous women took a stand on January 9th, 1972, as they chained themselves to the gates of Saltwell Park in Gateshead. Their unwavering determination was evident even when faced with the arrival of the police. These brave souls were resolute in their cause - votes for women. This image captures an iconic scene from Women's Lib in 1980s style. The three women portrayed suffragettes during the Tyneside premiere of Norman Holland's comedy, "The Militants" performed by the progressive Players at Little Theatre in Gateshead. Dressed in period costumes and holding banners high, these actors embodied the spirit and strength of those who fought tirelessly for gender equality. The photo showcases four individuals only, representing a diverse range of ages and backgrounds united under one common goal: advocating for women's rights. The railings behind them serve as a symbolic barrier that they aim to break down through their activism. As we reflect upon this powerful snapshot from UK social history, it is important to acknowledge and honor those who paved the way for progress. Let us remember these remarkable women who dared to challenge societal norms and fought passionately for equal representation. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder that change begins with courage and unity.
