The Links Between Golf and the Suffragette Movement - a lunchtime talk at the Pankhurst Museum
About this Event

“We are not fighting you because you play golf. We are not fighting you at all, but trying to stir you up.”
Sylvia Pankhurst

Have you ever wondered where the elitist nature of golf comes from? Ever thought about why suffragettes chased prime ministers across golf courses and cut 'Votes for Women' into the greens?

Join us for a lunchtime talk at the Pankhurst Museum on Saturday 8th August to learn about the links (pun intended) between patriarchy, privilege, golf courses and the suffragette movement.
