	Pankhurst
		The Pankhurst name is mainly associated with the Suffragette Movement, as Christabel Pankhurst and her mother Emmeline (“Mrs Pankhurst”) were the most prominent leaders of the Votes for Women movement in the late 19th and early 20th century.
		Christabel's younger sister, Sylvia (born 1882), was also involved in the suffrage campaigns, but in addition she came to adopt ideas and aims which are of more interest to those who advocate a socialist world.
		Pankhurst and the CP(BSTI) were, however, convinced by Lenin's arguments, and most of the organisation's branches joined the new CPGB soon after it was founded, though she continued to produce the Workers' Dreadnought as a separate paper.

		Pankhurst's position on class and socialism comes across, however, less as a considered acknowledgement that class and gender might compete than an unthinking dismissal of, for example, the complexity of the position of working-class women, disadvantaged by both class and gender.
		Pankhurst's intellectual rigidity on this question made her blind to the varied meanings of equality.
		Pankhurst may have been socialist in her own mind, but this had little reference to rigorous considerations of class position or state action on social issues.

		When the Pankhursts added their seal of approval to the sentiment and the tactic of “feathering” by both backing and participating in the effort, suffragists all over the country were encouraged to conduct a righteous assault on civilian men without the fear of recrimination from either the establishment or the suffrage elite.

		Larsen makes it clear that Christabel Pankhurst was one of the foremost feminist leaders and thinkers of the era, noting that she received a law degree with honors from Victoria University in Manchester in 1906.
		Pankhurst believed that venereal diseases were the result of "sexual immorality," and she condemned the idea that "sexual freedom" was the way of the future for women.
		He also points out that in all of the introductions of Pankhurst to fundamentalist audiences, there was not one introduction that ever "disparaged or critiqued her Suffragette work, or even one that indicated embarrassment regarding it." Larsen writes that various fundamentalist ministers actively supported the right of women to vote.

	About Sylvia Pankhurst
		Sylvia Pankhurst (1882-1960) was a socialist feminist who during the campaign for women’s suffrage at the turn of the 20th century, not only braved the horrors of hunger striking and forcible feeding, but also founded and built a remarkable women’s organisation in the East End of London.
		The WSPU (popularly known as the Suffragettes) was founded in 1903 and led by Emmeline and Christabel Pankhurst, Sylvia’s mother and older sister respectively.
		It is thus richly ironic that the British State has chosen to honour Emmeline and Christabel Pankhurst’s contribution to women’s suffrage, with a statue for the former and a plaque for the latter, both outside Parliament, whilst ignoring the role of Sylvia Pankhurst.

		The aim of the WSPU was to secure for women the same voting rights as were enjoyed by men - an aim which was not fully realised until 1928 - the year of Emmeline's death.
		This is of great significance to family historians as before the passing of the Act married women did not have the right to own property and therefore did not, as a rule, leave wills.
		As well as commemorating the centenary of the founding of the WSPU, this exhibition is intended to illustrate the main sources for family historians which can be seen at the FRC and elsewhere.

	Workers' Liberty #58 - Sylvia Pankhurst: an organiser for working class women. October 1999.
		Christabel, who declared "working women (to be in) the weakest position of the sex", berated Sylvia for organising with and fighting alongside working class women.
		The repugnant degeneration of Emmeline and Christabel is made even worse when compared to what was probably Sylvia's finest work.The movement she built in the East End was the result of consistent hard work; of actually being part of the day-to-day grind of life in the East End.
		Sylvia Pankhurst should not be seen as extraordinary because she was a woman, though she was an extraordinary woman, but because she was an extraordinary human being and an equal to any man of her time.
