EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the moment when Flora Drummond, a prominent Suffragette leader, urged the crowd in Trafalgar Square to "Rush the House of Commons" on October 13, 1908. Flora Drummond, dressed in a flowing white blouse and with her arm raised, commands the attention of the vast crowd gathered behind her. Her passion and determination are palpable as she speaks out for women's suffrage, a cause that would ultimately grant women the right to vote in the United Kingdom. Standing beside Flora Drummond on the platform are Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughter Christabel Pankhurst, both key figures in the Suffragette movement. The trio's unwavering commitment to women's rights and their willingness to engage in civil disobedience made them influential figures in the fight for suffrage. The event in Trafalgar Square marked a significant moment in the history of the Suffragette movement, as it was one of the first mass protests organized by the group. Thousands of women and men attended the rally, and many were arrested for attempting to storm the House of Commons. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the courage and determination of the Suffragettes and their pivotal role in securing women's suffrage in the UK.
