'Deeds not Words' - Forgotten Birmingham Suffragettes and Suffragists

For too long the importance of Birmingham and the West Midlands in the story of women’s struggle for the vote has been forgotten. Now we have turned a spotlight on the stories of the women who as suffragists devoted their lives to the cause and the suffragettes whose militant acts resulted in imprisonment and, often, force feeding. Watch our new film about the Birmingham suffragettes—’Deeds not Words’ - and hear Nicola discuss her important new book ‘Words and Deeds: Birmingham Suffragists and Suffragettes 1832-1918’ To buy the book: https://www.historywm.com/shop/produc...
