Thanks so much to Mac's Backs-Books on Coventry in Cleveland for a lovely book launch last night. This is a truly great bookshop which you would never guess from the outside has three floors and its own restaurant. Lots of enticing radical books. It was a pleasure to share stories about Sylvia's time in Cleveland: speaking with Pauline Perlmutter Steiman (Gloria Steiman's grandmother), visiting the workhouse and her sharing a platform with Anna McGinty from the garment workers' strike in the city. Thanks Cleveland! Looking forward to Milwaukee this afternoon.
A blog in support of E. Sylvia Pankhurst's 'A Suffragette in America: Reflections on Prisoners, Pickets and Political Change' (Pluto Press, 2019).
