A couple of months ago I was running a women's day in Devon and one of the activities I ran was to identify a women, living or dead, who had been an inspiration to them, a piece of music / art / poetry that had been an inspiration and one event which had made an impact on their lives. Huge amounts of discussion. Mine were My Gran who was a suffragette and been in Holloway on hunger strike so women and working men could get the vote, closely followed by Rosa Parks, the 'art' would be the poem 'First they came for the Jews', and the event.. this was difficult as it was a toss up between my father taking me on my first demonstration in Grosvenor Square outside the American Embassy and the putting up and taking down of the berlin Wall. Who would your inspirational woman be?
