Fanny Finch getting the air-time she deserves @Library_Vic blog on #IWD2022 . Research by yours truly, Kasey Chamberlain. 😉

Since this article’s publication in 2019, several women were identified by name as voters at Warrnambool a week before Fanny. This certainly doesn’t detract any significance from Fanny as a trailblazing African-diaspora voter in 1856, nor from her many other historic achievements

[The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand @ConversationEDU]

For #IWD2022, let's revisit some of the forgotten female trailblazers profiled in @ConversationEDU's series Hidden Women of History... (a thread 🧵) #BreakingTheBias

First up, Australia’s first known female voter, profiled by @latrobe's @kaceysincl.

@SWLRV @FionaPattenMLC @historyvictoria An absolute cracker of a history. I still keep it on my bed side table!

@SSRRCC It was my first inquisitive cow experience and I felt like such a paranoid, ignorant city kid!!

[Kacey Sinclair @kaceysincl]

@SSRRCC This happened to me on at arch dig yesterday. It was quite intimidating being followed and closely watched by 8 huge cows!!

[Kacey Sinclair @kaceysincl]

@BrigidWD @mrbenjaminlaw @celestebarber_ @DEADLINE Effusive congratulations, Brigid!! Can’t wait to watch!

[Kacey Sinclair @kaceysincl]

@pollywolfie Haha that’s just because I’m desperately trying to remember my next line!

[Kacey Sinclair @kaceysincl]

What fun to re-live the @statefestival through these stellar images by local photographer Brendan McCarthy. Very much looking forward to joining @pollywolfie and Bill Garner again on stage to perform our award-winning play (thanks to @PRO_Vic) #FindingFannyFinch again!
