White Feather Girls (Encore)

14 min • 29 april 2024

The First World War wasn’t just fought on the fields of France and Belgium. There were lesser battles fought on the homefronts of the nations which were fighting.

In the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth countries, this battle was fought on the streets of cities and towns between men who didn’t wear a uniform and women who tried to shame them into joining the military.

These street conflicts got so bad that the governments eventually had to take action.

Learn more about the White Feather Girls and how they shaped World War One on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
