Women's Social and Political Union  

Definición

  • The Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), the militant wing of the British women's suffrage movement, was founded in Manchester in 1903 by Emmeline Pankhurst and her daughters, Christabel, Sylvia, and Adela. Along with the more conservative National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies (NUWSS), founded in 1897, the WSPU sought votes for women in a country that had expressly denied women the franchise in 1832.
