Last week's racist march and the anti racist march in Newcastle upon Tyne brought out the long history of the North-east’s maternal society.
History shows that women right across the region had to manage their families while their partners struggled to bring home the bacon. Those women ruled so strongly and managed so well as to be admired by others.
Today, many North-east women realise how anti-women and sexist REFORM leaders have become and last week's anti-racist march was filled with those women who recall or are still part of the local maternal society showing us all why REFORM is not of any benefit to our families our history and our culture right across the North-east.
