And as if that wasn’t enough— We're excited to announce that the Protests and Suffragettes team will be sharing our vision and goals for the Centenary of the Equal Franchise Act in 2028 – and all the projects we're currently planning to ramp up towards the Centenary!
he evening is already looking to be an unforgettable, joyous celebration of inspiring women who changed our world for the better, and is hosted in partnership with Kinning Park Complex.
The Protests and Suffragettes team will also be speaking about Glasgow’s mighty suffrage activists who also have musical connections. We’ll also be sharing stories about Jessie Soga, a professional musician, expert fundraiser, and the only mixed-race Suffragette based in Glasgow (that we know of).
Our musical collaborator and all around wonder @docturnormul (aka Lorna MacBean) will be there sharing new songs set to the Holloway Jingles (written by Suffragettes c1911). We’re so excited for folks to hear these incredible poems that capture the struggle, strength and fight of the Suffragettes.

During the Rent Strikes, Mary worked alongside activists Helen Crawfurd and Agnes Dollan – and together they founded the Women’s Peace Crusade. In June 1916 they helped organise the ‘Great Women’s Peace Conference’, held in Glasgow.
As a local Councillor she campaigned relentlessly for better housing, healthcare, and means-tested benefits. She was one of the first women to be elected as a Councillor in Glasgow, and was also involved in some of Scotland’s first family planning clinics.
It was in Govan that Mary became politically active. She joined the Kinning Park Co-operative Women’s Guild, which organised campaigns on women’s issues including health and suffrage.
Mary Barbour was a working-class political activist, local Councillor, Bailie and Magistrate. She is most well known for her role leading the 1915 Govan Rent Strikes, when working people protested against unfair rents.
📆 OTD in 1875 Mary Barbour was Born
🗣️ “We should be daring in our demands, not only for better houses but for a higher standard of living generally.”
