Votes for Women! The price we pay for demanding our rights

EDITORS COMMENTS
- This powerful image captures the determination and courage of the Suffragette movement in their fight for women's suffrage in early 1906. The photograph depicts a woman, identified as suffragette Irene Miller, being arrested by two policemen as she walks down a street, her wrists held in their grasp. The caption underscores the sacrifice and commitment of these women in their quest for the right to vote. This postcard, issued by the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), is believed to be the first directly attributed to the organization. The WSPU was a militant group that used various tactics, including civil disobedience and protests, to bring attention to the cause of women's suffrage. The arrest of suffragettes like Irene Miller became a common occurrence during this period, as they engaged in peaceful protests and civil disobedience, often resulting in their arrest. The image is a poignant reminder of the price paid by these brave women for their activism. The WSPU's slogan, "Deeds not Words," encapsulated their belief in taking action to bring about change. This postcard, dating back to 1906, is an important historical artifact that documents the sacrifices made by suffragettes in their fight for women's suffrage. Irene Miller went on to become a member of the Women's Freedom League, another organization dedicated to women's suffrage, highlighting the ongoing commitment of these women to the cause. This photograph is a testament to their unwavering determination and the significant impact they had on the women's suffrage movement in the UK.
