This film is from the series Emmeline Pankhurst and the Suffragettes available on BBC Teach. Sally Lindsay examines the life of the leader of the Suffragettes, Emmeline Pankhurst, and traces the people, places, and events that turned her into the leader of the ‘Votes for Women’ campaign group. Formally known as the Women’s Social and Political Union, the Suffragettes were a national organisation that fought for female voting rights when only men had the vote. In interviews with Emmeline’s descendants and expert historians, Sally learns about Emmeline’s early years in industrial Manchester and discovers more about the people and the political and social events that made her believe votes for women could only be won by military means. Teacher Notes Students could examine a number of different images of Emmeline Pankhurst and be asked to think about what each picture tells them about Emmeline Pankhurst. When watching the video students could answer the following questions: What was Emmeline’s childhood like and what impact did this have on her politically? How did her work as a registrar affect her? What was the WSPU and what was her role in it? Why do you think Emmeline Pankhurst was named the woman of the 20th century? Why is she a significant individual in History? Students could then produce a front cover for TIME magazine or write a short interview with Emmeline Pankhurst. At the end of the lesson students could be asked to consider what three key things have they learnt about her today and what surprised them the most about her life?

This film is from the series The Story of China available on BBC Teach. The Taiping Rebellion was mostly a revolt by poor, rural peasants against their rich landlords, inspired by the religious pamphlets of an American missionary. Historian Michael Wood calls it the ‘worst war of the 19th Century’. He explores the background to the revolt - the defeat in the Opium War, and rural poverty. Hong, the leader, spent years in the rural South of China preparing the peasants for rebellion. Initially very successful, Hong, with the support of an army of one hundred thousand, was installed as Emperor in Nanjing. China then had two governments - one traditional, the Qing in Beijing, the other revolutionary, in Nanjing, where the Taiping rebels created a classless society where private property was abolished. Finally, in 1864, aided by Britain and the other western powers, the Qing were able to re-conquer Nanjing, defeating the Taiping Rebellion and reuniting China.
