Event Details
Rachel Holmes: Sylvia Pankhurst: Natural Born Rebel
The name Pankhurst conjures up Suffragettes and Votes for Women, but the vote, claims Rachel Holmes, was just the beginning of Sylvia’s lifelong defense of Human Rights.
In the shadow of her mother Emmeline and elder sister Christabel, Sylvia Pankhurst was the most revolutionary of them all – a natural rebel, a talented artist, prolific writer and newspaper editor.
Make yourself comfortable for a revealing conversation between Rachel and festival patron Melissa Benn.
