Maude Malone organized the Harlem Equal Rights League in 1905. She was known for being a loud protester, shouting questions during politicians' speeches.

According to www.jstor.org/pss/25542770 Libraries & Culture © 1995
"The Library Employees' Union, founded in 1917 in New York City, was the first union of public library workers in the United States. A major focus of the union was the inferior status of women library workers and their low salaries. The union's main spokesperson, Maud Malone, had been active in the reinvigoration of the women's suffrage movement that occurred in the first decade of the twentieth century. Advocating the affiliation of library workers with women's organizations and with the working class, the union applied the tactics used by suffragists and other reformers to the library world. "

Oh cool, she was a librarian! Somehow makes wonderful sense for her to turn up in the Commons, then. ;)

As father of a 28-year-old daughter (and husband of a wife), I say: Uppity Women Unite!
JE Piper: A nice juxtaposition!
