EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the raw intensity of the Suffragette movement in Britain during the early 20th century. The photograph, taken on Black Friday, 18th November 1910, shows suffragette Ada Wright (1862-1939) being forcibly removed from the House of Commons by police. The event, depicted in this image, was part of a larger deputation organized by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), led by Emmeline Pankhurst, to demand the right to vote for women. The WSPU had issued Leaflet no. 75, entitled "Plain Facts About the Suffragette Deputations," which detailed the reasons for their actions and the violent response they received from the authorities. In this photograph, Ada Wright is seen being kicked on the ground by a police officer, a stark reminder of the brutal tactics used to suppress the suffragettes' demands for women's suffrage. The Suffragette movement, which advocated for women's right to vote using militant tactics, gained significant momentum during this period. Black Friday marked a turning point in the campaign, as the violent clashes between the suffragettes and the police drew widespread attention to their cause. The image of Ada Wright being kicked on the ground became a symbol of the suffering and determination of the suffragettes in their fight for women's rights. This photograph is an important historical document, providing a visual record of a pivotal moment in the history of women's suffrage in Britain. It serves as a reminder of the courage and resilience of the suffragettes, who fought tirelessly for the right to vote and paved the way for future generations of women to exercise their political power.
