A woman by the name of Emmeline Pankhurst would be the answer. She campaigned in the UK for women's rights in the late 1800s to early 1900s.

Emmeline Pankhurst was Britain's women social activist who vigorously campaigned for women right to vote, She formed a militant movement called Women Social and Political movent (WSPU). A movement that witnessed many women demonstrate on the streets leading to their the women arrested but Punkhurst continued to encourage them to continue fighting with a hope that suffrage could be forwarded.The fight for militance ended when Pankhurst started to support World War 1, she encouraged women to take part in the war and to work in the factories. This participation led the British government to grant women who were 30years and above rights to vote.
