‘London Talks’ is a new series at Bishopsgate Institute, sharing the stories of the people who have lived and worked in the city, bringing alive the distinct characteristics and areas of the capital, and demonstrating the vibrancy and diversity of the many histories of London.
Suffrage groups and societies were constantly reaching out to new audiences and supporters, wanting to challenge negative media stereotypes and encourage support for Votes for Women.
In this talk, Naomi Paxton explores some of the less well-known actions and events of the suffrage campaign in London, focusing on the playfulness of the performative propaganda of the movement and its engagement with popular culture in the pre-First World War period.
