Surprisingly some of these women were former high ranking members of the suffragette movement.<\/p>\n<h2>The Smoke-Dragon and How to Destroy it by Edward Carpenter [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.brh.org.uk\/site\/contributors\/stephen-e-hunt\/\">Stephen E Hunt<\/a>]<em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>Edward Carpenter (1844-1929) was one of the most progressive thinkers and writers and activists of the late-19th, early 20th centuries. He was an early supporter of the Bristol Socialist Society and paid regular visits to the city. Now remembered and celebrated mostly for his support for libertarian socialism and gay politics, he also took up \u2018green\u2019 causes. Carpenter\u2019s campaigns for smoke abatement have rarely been revisited. His serialised essay on the subject, \u2018The Smoke-Dragon and How to Destroy it\u2019, which first appeared in The Clarion in 1894, has never been republished until now.<\/p>\n<h2>Turbulence: labour and gender relations in Bristol\u2019s aircraft industry during the First World War [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.brh.org.uk\/site\/contributors\/mike-richardson-2\/\">Mike Richardson<\/a>]<strong><em><br \/>\n<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The tensions faced by the men and women in Bristol\u2019s aircraft industry during the First World War add to our knowledge of the turbulence of wartime industrial relations. Workers resisted State regulation, the incorporation of the trade union and labour leadership into the State machinery, the prohibition of strikes and lockouts, compulsory arbitration and dilution.<\/p>\n<h2>Wulfstan to Colston: Severing the Sinews of Slavery, Bristol\u2019s 1000 Year Battle [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.brh.org.uk\/site\/contributors\/mark-steeds\/\">Mark Steeds<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brh.org.uk\/site\/contributors\/roger-ball\/\">Roger Ball<\/a>]<em><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n<p>Recent research by BRHG historians has shown that &#8216;city father&#8217; Edward Colston was a major player in the trans-Atlantic slave trade as deputy-governor of the Royal African Company and later as an investor in the South Sea Company.
