Theme of this netwalk
For Women’s History Month, hear stories of Manchester women who committed crime in the Long 19th Century. Manchester’s females carried out M**der, violence, suicide, theft, sex work, fraud, deception, infanticide, disruption, protest, disorder, arson, bombings.
We look at their crimes, their punishments, the social context, and public opinion.
