Today is Emmeline Pankhurst's birthday. Thanks to her and those who joined her, British women can vote today. All is more special is because Church of England is still debating for women bishop in 2014, nearly 100 years after women's right to vote being granted.
You can read about her in her own words, My Own Story, free kindle version from Amazon. It's the least I could do, to salute to a character who helps shape my life.
