OUR OWN 2016 SUFFRAGETTES & A BOBBY @ "RAFAEL DIESTE" [7th CW]

At our 7th Cultural Week, IES "Rafael Dieste" is proud to present our own 2016 version of the British Suffragettes. 

After having worked on the topic in the different classes, this movement is going to have its representation during one of the parades of pioneers characters due tomorrow. 

Today and tomorrow Wednesday there will be "Pioneer Parades", where different pioneer characters will be played by our school students:

- Today Tuesday is devoted to pioneer characters from VIII century B.C. to the XVIII century.

- Tomorrow Wednesday will be about pioneer characters from the XIX & XX centuries. In this parade, girl students from 2ºESO-C Irene BLANCO, Paula REY & Cielo MARÍÑEZ  (in the photo above) will play the role of the British Suffragettes (Emmerline Pankhurst, Emily Davison...) They will be accompanied by Carlos GALÁN (in the photo below) who'll be playing the role of a policeman (bobby).
(Update: At the end of this post below, you can watch the video of their performance).

They'll come rushing down the assembly hall, shouting out:
"VOTES FOR WOMEN!" 

and later pronounce some of their most famous quotes:

Paula: 
"We're in every home, we're half the human race, you can't stop us all. We will win"

Cielo: 
"We break windows, we burn things 'cause war is the only language men listen to".

Irene: 
"We do not want to be law-breakers. We want to be law-makers".

The three together: 
"...And never surrender. Never give up the fight. We will win".

Below you can watch their performance pronouncing these words:
