The Bodyguard Unit: Edith Garrud, Women's Suffrage, and Jujitsu
In the early 20th century, women in England were demanding the right to voteÑand often faced violent retaliation. Rather than back down, suffragist group the Women's Social and Political Union formed an all-women security unit. Activist leader Emmeline Pankhurst asked Edith Garrud to train them. These ""jujitsuffragettes"" fought against abuse and arrest while pursuing long overdue rights.
