white stands for purity in private and public life...
green is the colour of hope and the emblem of spring.'

Give (green) Women (white) Votes (violet) 

"One of the intentions of the colours was to promote public awareness of the depth of the belief for suffrage in England. Women were encouraged to 'wear the colours' to show support for the movement and to stand out in the crowds during public demonstrations. They particularly wanted the men that were opposed to the movement, to be aware of the connection of the colours to the suffrage, in this they succeeded.

The characters on many anti-suffrage postcards drawn by male artists of that period were often draped in sashes and banners of purple white and green, presuming that a suffragette would be recognised by her colours, even by those who opposed the movement.

Audiodescription - today, I ...

Background  
  • Professional: I am an educator, researcher, equalities specialist, nurse, and public health specialist. I have been lucky to be offered rich and diverse career opportunities and have worked at local, regional, national, and international levels. I am an associate lecturer on a master’s course in Public Health that I set up more than 20 years ago.
  • Personal: I am disabled. I have been a carer since I was a young child. My preferred pronouns are she/her.
  • Political activism: These days I get to simply describe myself as a transnational feminist activist. And that’s a wonderful liberation in itself. Especially after having worked as a civil servant (in Theresa May’s government).
  • Some of the things I’m involved in/support in addition to the Women’s Leadership Network (WLN), include Apolitical; the Women's Environmental Network; XR teachers, VOICE, WEN, WHEN, WRC and local politics.
