Emmeline Pankhurst. Den Namen hat frau und auch man sicherlich schonmal in dem ein oder anderen Zusammenhang mit Frauenrechten gehört. Aber Genaueres haben auch wir erst in dieser Folge mit Erstaunen und auch bisweilen gemischter Verwunderung erfahren. Eins steht fest: Diesen Namen sollten man mehr als "mal gehört" haben. Emmeline Pankhurst gehört zu DEN Figuren der europäischen Frauenrechtsbewegung. Geboren 1858 im britischen Manchester kam Emmeline durch ihre Mutter Sophia schon früh in Kontakt mit feministischen Ideen. 1879 heiratete sie Richard Pankhurst, der sich als den Rechtsanwalt u.a. für das Frauenwahlrecht einsetzte. Nach seinem Tod zog Emmeline ihre fünf Kinder alleine groß und widmete sich immer stärker dem Kampf für das Wahlrecht der Frauen. Im Jahr 1903 gründete sie die Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), die sich mehr und mehr zum militanten Flügel der englischen Frauenbewegung (auch Suffragetten genannt) entwickelte: „Wenn es für Männer richtig ist, für ihre Freiheit zu kämpfen, ist es auch für Frauen richtig, für ihre Freiheit und die ihrer Kinder zu kämpfen. Dies ist das Glaubensbekenntnis der militanten Frauen Englands.“ sagte Emmeline einmal. Ihrem Lebensmotto "Taten statt Worte" folgte sie bis zu ihrem Tod. Eine starke Frau, die sich mit ihrem Kampf auch in den eigenen Reihen nicht immer Freunde machte. Warum? Das erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge von STARKE FRAUEN, die uns das ein oder andere Mal den Mund offen stehen ließ. ************ Unsere Werbepartner: CHEEX: https://bit.ly/starke7 Code: STARK7 https://linktr.ee/starkefrauen ************ Auswahl Quellen: https://www.greelane.com/de/geisteswissenschaften/geschichte--kultur/emmeline-pankhurst-1779832 http://www.menschenrechte-frauen.de/texte/emmeline-pankhurst-gewaltloser-widerstand.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmeline_Pankhurst https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filibuster Sophia A. van Wingerden: The Women's Suffrage Movement in Britain, 1866–1928. https://www.fembio.org/biographie.php/frau/biographie/emmeline-pankhurst https://inspiring-teatime.de/emmeline-pankhurst-pionierin-der-britischen-suffragetten-bewegung UNSER TEAM: Hosts und Redaktion: Kim Seidler und Cathrin Jacob Recherche & Script: Daniel Jacob Schnitt: Kim Seidler Episoden zu der Geschichte der Frauenrechte in Deutschland: Teil1: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7jOaskl9WE06IixDHFunkS?si=MyfmFjlZQ1mslNVrVrhOHQ Teil 2: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7oXf3gNkFu4kG6NWx2I6Va?si=dOXPBrWMToSlWzUIZy5hkw UNSERE KONTAKTDATEN: Alle Folgen, Links und Infos zu unserem Werbepartner: linktr.ee/starkefrauen Folgt uns gern und erzählt anderen von uns.

Extension Grazing Outreach Specialist Jason Cavadini says 2025 has been one of the best years for cool-season perennial grasses in the past decade, thanks to well-timed rainfall. He tells Kiley Allan that September and October are peak months for pasture growth, making it a crucial time for farmers to manage their forage carefully. A hot day to close World Dairy Expo. Eighty-eight degrees is the expected high, according to the Compeer Financial Ag Weather Update. The Women’s Suffrage Movement, the Treaty of Versailles, and the beginning of the prohibition. These are all things that were taking place when the Larscheid family farm was getting started in 1919. Ben Jarboe visits with Bill and Debbie, courtesy of Compeer Financial. It takes a lot of behind-the-scenes work and preparation to make the cattle look their absolute best before gracing the colored shavings at World Dairy Expo. Kiley Allan introduces us to a set of hands that makes it all possible: Joé Lapage, who has been fitting cattle for about five years. Farms are already starting to watch yield monitors for 2025, thinking about 2026.

Our final episode of the season is an encore presentation, in memoriam, of the first episode of the season-- Sally Roesch Wagner and the Suffragists-Native American connection.  Sally Roesch Wagner passed on June 11 at the age of 82.  She was an historian of women's history and the Women's Suffrage Movement, an author and an educator. She was the founding director of the Matilda Joslyn Gage Foundation and Social Justice Dialogue Center which honored the accomplishments of pioneering suffragist, Matilda Joslyn Gage.*****In this episode: The Iroquois, alternatively referred to by the endonym Haudenosaunee, are a confederacy of Native Americans and First Nations peoples in northeast North America.  Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Matilda Joslyn Gage, and Lucretia Mott had formed friendships with Haudenosaunee women that enabled them to see the real possibility of creating a very different structure for their American culture, a matriarchal one, like the one that their Haudenosaunee sisters had experienced for generations. We talk to Sally Roesch Wagner about this amazing story and how she discovered this overlooked pieced of American feminist herstory.Sean Marlon Newcombe and Dawn "Sam" Alden co-host.

These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality. Under my direction, the Executive Branch will enforce all sex-protective laws to promote this reality...” The enforcement of this executive order has rippled through the United States – and has included removing words and images from websites and papering over interpretive panels in museums.

Postscript: Donald Trump is Erasing History – What YOU Can Do about it

On January 20th, Donald Trump issued an executive order entitled “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government.” The order announced that “It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female. These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality. Under my direction, the Executive Branch will enforce all sex-protective laws to promote this reality...” The enforcement of this executive order has rippled through the United States – and has included removing words and images from websites and papering over interpretive panels in museums. For example, material related to the Enola Gay -- a WWII Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber, named after Enola Gay Tibbets, the mother of the pilot, Colonel Paul Tibbets – was removed because it contained the word “gay.” As a new joint statement from the American Historical Association and Organization of American Historians recounts, “Some alterations, such as those related to topics like the Tuskegee Airmen and the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II, have been hurriedly reversed in response to public outcry. Others remain. The scrubbing of words and acronyms from the Stonewall National Monument webpage, for instance, distorts the site's history by denying the roles of transgender and queer people in movements for rights and liberation. This distortion of history renders the past unrecognizable to the people who lived it and useless to those who seek to learn from the past.” To discuss how – and why – the Trump administration is censoring and removing historical materials, my guest is Dr. Wendy L. Rouse, Professor of History at San Jose State University where she is the program coordinator for the History/Social Science Teacher Preparation Program. Her research focuses on the history of gender and sexuality in the Progressive Era – and her publication for the National Park Service was changed after the executive order.

The Women's Suffrage Movement in the US started small, very small in fact, in a tiny hamlet in New York State. Over time, it spread from state to state across the whole country as its following grew. Their fight for equal rights culminated in the ratification of the 19th Amendment after a seventy-year battle. However, while this monumental achievement was a vital step, it did not guarantee every woman access to the ballot. The story continues to this day across the globe and the fight is still fought to achieve Votes for Women by Tory Brown from Fort Circle Games.

The Suffragette - The History of the Women's Militant Suffrage Movement by E. Sylvia Pankhurst audiobook. This history of the Women's Suffrage agitation is written at a time when the question is in the very forefront of British politics. What the immediate future holds for those women who are most actively engaged in fighting for their political freedom no one can foretell, but one thing is certain: complete victory for their cause is not far distant. When the long struggle for the enfranchisement of women is over, those who read the history of the movement will wonder at the blindness that led the Government of the day to obstinately resist so simple and obvious a measure of justice. The men and women of the coming time will, I am persuaded, be filled with admiration for the patient work of the early pioneers and the heroic determination and persistence in spite of coercion, repression, misrepresentation, and insult of those who fought the later militant fight.

Amended, a podcast from our friends at Humanities New York, asks how we tell the story of the (unfinished) struggle for women's voting rights. Who gave us the dominant suffrage narrative? And who gets left out?When the 19th Amendment was ratified in 1920, a large number of Native American women still could not vote. The U.S. government did not recognize them as citizens. And if having U.S. citizenship required them to renounce tribal sovereignty, many Native women didn't want it. But early-twentieth-century writer, composer, and activist Zitkála-Šá was determined to fight for both.In this episode, host Laura Free speaks with digital artist Marlena Myles (Spirit Lake Dakota) whose art is inspired by Dakota imagery and history, and by Zitkála-Šá's legacy. Dr. Cathleen Cahill, author of Recasting the Vote: How Women of Color Transformed the Suffrage Movement, returns to help tell the story of Zitkála-Šá's struggle for a “layered” U.S. citizenship that included the acknowledgment of Native American sovereignty.This final episode of the Amended series demonstrates once again how those who have been marginalized within U.S. democracy have worked, and continue to work, to hold the nation accountable for its promise of liberty and equality for all.Listen to Amended in full at https://humanitiesny.org/our-work/amended-podcast/ or in the Humanities New York feed wherever you listen.
