Women's Suffrage- Annie Kenney and Christabel Pankhurst (1918)

# data[].attributes.body
Women in the United Kingdom spent a lot of time working for the right to vote. This was known as the Women's Suffrage. The first movement was in 1918. In this photo are two of the women that were involved in starting the fight to be granted the right to vote. This involved many struggles with Parliament. Considering the fact that women had already previously been banned to vote in Great Britain after the 1832 Reform Act, it was not an easy task to change the law. Organized campaigns gained wider support from across the area. As seen in this picture, women were very confident and determined to get what they wanted. Kennedy and Pankhurt's smirks on their faces give the impression that they knew they would achieve success eventually. They were, in fact, successful. By 1918, women over the age of thirty whom were either a member of to married to a member of the Local Government Register were able to vote. In 1928, women were granted the same voting laws as men. This meant they must be over the age of 21 in order to vote. This movement shows the harsh sexism that has been present in the United Kingdom. Although today women have so called "equal rights", unfair actions continue to be given to women.

The Migration Series (Jacob Lawrence)- video

# data[].attributes.body
Jacob Lawrence created a work of sixty pieces all revolving around African migration. He called these works "The Migration Series." African immigrants were headed for major cities such as New York, Chicago, and St. Louis. As more and more people came to these cities, natives of the cities were worried about jobs being taken over by immigrants. This is where the labor and class issue came into play. It was difficult for an immigrant to be accepted into a higher working class than any native. This caused many problems as far as Africans making a life for themselves. Putting problems aside, Jacob Lawrence really emphasized the determination of the people during the migration. He focuses on the journey and strength it took to make it to the United States. Despite the fact that these people would face racism and other struggles, they were willing to do whatever it took in order to become successful in this new place full of opportunities. The opportunities are endless, but the question is will these immigrants be eligible to reach them? As many immigrants wanted labor jobs such as working in factories, more questions arose such as if they would be able to receive education in order to reach higher jobs.

Race riots broke out in London in 1958. Fights went on between groups of whites and blacks. This man standing here holds a sign saying "White Defense League." I believe that these words are referring to white people wanting to protect their jobs and "territory." With streams of Africans coming to London, the working world was something that was up for grabs to both whites and blacks. Although this man in the photo seems confident as he holds his sign, he must be fearful. The whole reason he is partaking in actions like these is because he is aware of the change that will take place. Changes in population will lead to changes in class and structure. When people are established and successful, it may be intimidating when such great numbers of more people come into the picture.

This poster from World War II praises the work of females in industries during the war. While many men fought in the war, many jobs were left open. There was no other choice but to give these jobs to the women, whom did not fight in the war. As the women in the working world did not disappoint, many of the jobs were given back to the veterans when they returned. Once the war ended, women returned to their "typical" duties such as serving as a stay at home mother. This was extremely disappointing to women during this time period as they thought they were finally allowed into the working world. Women were finally seen as powerful and capable. Once this power was taken away from them, it was difficult to see the good in it. While women went back to the way they were before World War II, a couple decades later came the Women's Rights movement. This movement was the first step in equal rights for women. In this photo specifically, he portrays that fact that women got the job done, but can also continue to work just as well as men.

The Commonwealth Immigrants Act of 1962 was one of the several acts that attempted to restrict immigration into the United Kingdom. This stems back to the fact citizens of the U.K. were much against the diversity that continued to stream into Great Britain. After both World War I and II, immigration was taking place very heavily to the United Kingdom. As the population continued to grow with diversity, the more of a problem racism and unequal rights became. In this photo, we see African immigrants in the U.K. protesting to stop the Commonwealth Immigrants Act. The "No Colour Bar on Immigration" sign somewhat calls Parliament out for their wrongdoing. Although they may say the act could be a way for limiting Great Britain's population, it was well-known that this act was just a way to prevent more color in the population. When there was mention of this act coming into play, there was a large spike in immigration into the United Kingdom before it came into effect. This shows a way of fighting back and standing up for their race. We see improvement in this aspect when we look at today's world. In many situations, diversity is encouraged and wanted. For example, many schools want and accept people of all different backgrounds. Blocking off diversity as done in the Commonwealth Immigrant Act, makes for backwards progress and failure to recognize the inequality.

This photograph shows a different side to racism gatherings. It is often that when we see photographs related to racism, it has to do with protests or riots. In the case on this picture from Liberation Day in 1977, people that are gathered around are rather optimistic and anxious about the future. At last, they see the equality that they have been working for throughout their history. There is a very peaceful and happy vibe that is communicated through the picture. In fact, this was the first large gathering without any riots. You can see the people intently listening to the speech, perhaps waiting for questions to be answered such as, "Where do we go from here?". This idea of living an equal life was new to all African Americans, and many were wondering where they would fit in. It may seem surreal that happiness is being obtained. Although racism will forever be in lives of people, big marks of improvement are special. It marks the start to more opportunities and growth. Again, this growth will give these African Americans many more questions. Along with the faces of hope, excitement, and determination, there are also looks of fear. Some may wonder how they will be treated in the real world, what the work world will look like, or what type of world their kids will grow up in. As this social issue of racism comes to an end in respect to the unfair treatments, we soon realize that racism will still live on in smaller, but brutal ways.

Both of these western areas experienced similar social issues during the 1900s.
