Description

The suffragettes are dead. Long live the suffragettes! As part of the Wonder Woman Radical Manchester events celebrating International Women's Day, the one-day conference Suffragette Legacy brought together academics, artists, campaigners and activists to present and speak about how their work is affected by the suffragette legacy of feminism in 2014.

The organisers welcomed academic papers, feminist theory, poetry and visual art to discuss this important, but often complex topic.

It was found that the suffragette legacy is often hidden in private stories, in little-known projects, in art and in metaphor.

In addition, the contributions to the conference showed that certain suffragette words, worries and worlds in gender politics still play out amongst humans.

This edited volume will encourage more dialogue, discussions and future narratives for our feminist foremothers in both Manchester and beyond.
