Suffragists used visual symbolism to help the public envision a world in which women could participate in the political process.
The Suffragettes made very good use of dress as part of their campaign -
They were astute enough to understand the power of clothing to make an immediate impression
Their opposition tried to paint them as frumpy, unattractive, un-feminine women's rights protesters
For marches they were encouraged to dress in their smartest clothes and to be the epitome of stylish femininity.
- They also harnessed the concept of uniformity fostering comradeship and belonging within the group.
A small South Pacific island boomed with song on Saturday as hundreds gathered for King Charles's coronation, a momentous occasion for villagers who believe his father was a local deity.
The volcanic island of Tanna in the south of Vanuatu is the cradle of the Prince Philip movement, which claims the late royal patriarch as a long-lost ancestor. A world away from the coronation pageantry at Westminster Abbey, some 1,000 islanders gathered in the lush,
rugged highlands to mark the coronation. The verdant hills rang with polyphonic harmonies as men, women and children - all clad in grass skirts or gourds - skipped through the village in a joyous display of song and dance.
#TodaysHeroes - (2 horses) in honour of all the military horses
Sir Briggs, horse of Lord Tredegar, 17th Lancers, ridden at Balaklava, 1854, in camp in the Crimea, 1854.
He took part in the infamous Charge of the Light Brigade during the Battle of Balaklava (1854), where 370 horses were killed. Briggs showed remarkable bravery during the battle, despite taking a sabre wound to the head. Afterwards, he was unofficially knighted 'Sir Briggs'.
Briggs survived the tough conditions of a war that saw many other horses perish from starvation and fatigue. He eventually died in 1874 and was commemorated with a memorial in the grounds of Tredegar Park, his master’s home in Wales.
