EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "The Suffragette that Knew Jiu-Jitsu - The Arrest," transports us back to the tumultuous year of 1910, a pivotal moment in the fight for Women's Suffrage in the United Kingdom. The image portrays a lone suffragette, her sleeves rolled up, standing defiantly before a crowd of terrified policemen. Her unwavering gaze and poised stance speak volumes of her determination and courage. The suffragette, who is known to us only through this photograph, has set aside her obligatory Votes for Women banner, broad-brimmed hat, and whip. Instead, she exudes an aura of confidence and readiness, as if daring the policemen to make their move. The railings and pavement of the street bear witness to the intensity of the moment, with the suffragette's feet firmly planted on the pavement, ready for action. The intriguing aspect of this photograph lies in the suffragette's proficiency in Jiu-Jitsu, a martial art that was gaining popularity during that era. The art of Ju Jitsu, with its focus on leverage and technique, was an effective means for the suffragettes to defend themselves against the often brutal tactics employed by the police during their protests. This suffragette's mastery of the martial art adds an additional layer of intrigue to her story, making her a symbol of strength and resilience in the face of adversity. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the indomitable spirit of the suffragettes and their unwavering commitment to securing the right to vote for women. It is a testament to their courage, determination, and resourcefulness in the face of opposition, and a reminder of the significant role that women have played in shaping the course of history.
