On International Women's Day, it is worth reminding ourselves of the dedication of those Irish women who struggled for the women's right to vote in the early 20th century. Sometimes one gets the impression that the vote was gained through nothing more than polite lobbying. Not the case, as the following excerpt from Maria Luddy's short biography of Hanna Sheehy Skeffington (1995) shows.

These women went to jail while fighting for a basic right, and today a number of women (Deirdre Clancy, Nuin Dunlop, Karen Fallon and Mary Kelly) are facing jail sentences for similar actions, taken while protesting against an immoral and unjust war. These women stand in a proud tradition of civil disobedience against injustice. read full story / add a comment
