In 1903, Emmeline Pankhurst founded the Women's Social and Political Union in Manchester, launching a more aggressive campaign for voting rights in Britain. For the next 15 years, suffragettes used civil disobedience, property damage, and hunger strikes to demand the vote—tactics that divided the movement but kept women's suffrage impossible to ignore.
