British Columbia is often overlooked in the national story of
women's struggle for political equality. This book rights that
wrong. A Great Revolutionary Wave follows the propaganda campaigns
undertaken by suffrage organizations and traces the role of
working-class women in the fight for political equality. It
demonstrates the connections between provincial and British
suffragists, and examines how racial exclusion and Indigenous
dispossession shaped arguments and tactics for enfranchisement.
Lara Campbell rethinks the complex legacy of suffrage and traces
the successes and limitations of women's historical fight for
political equality. That legacy remains relevant today as Canadians
continue to grapple with the meaning of justice, inclusion, and
equality.
