Remember in school, all those lessons about the men of the past? How they ruled, fought and built? Well, on Kickass Women of History we'll be learning about what they didn't teach us in school. We'll be exploring the lives of strong and incredible women from around the globe and from throughout human history. Our aim is to share diverse stories of women who made a difference - to their family, village, country or the whole world. That could be 5 years ago, or 5000. Each episode, we'll be joined by a different historian who'll be sharing the life of their history heroine.

21. Chainmakers of Cradley Heath

This week we're celebrating the legacy of the Chainmakers of Cradley Heath, who put down their tools in protest at the exploitative practices of the UK manufacturers. Amy is joined by Jenny and Gigi Ermoyenous, and Lucy Atherton from the Friends of the Women Chainmakers to explore what led to the strike, who the key figures were, and why this small town in the Black Country became the focus of a national campaign.

More information about the Women Chainmakers, and the upcoming festival, is available on www.kickasswomenofhistory.com
