    London Dyke March Will Pay Homage To Suffragette Movement

    This year's march in London will model its route after the Suffragettes march through London in 1908, better known as the "Votes for Women Rally."

    The Lesbian Pride Festival and Dyke March will return to the UK for the second year running.

    Last year, nearly 800 participants marched through London. It was the first official Dyke March there in over 20 years.

    Organizer Emelia Holdaway hopes that this year's march will draw even greater numbers.

    This year’s route will commemorate the "Votes for Women" Rally in 1908.
