'Beyond Kate' marks the 125th anniversary of the suffrage petition, and the decision to allow women in New Zealand to vote.
RNZ's Sonia Sly tells the story of how this momentous decision was reached, and reviews its legacy today. In the process, she also unearths some of the personal histories of the 25,000-plus women who put their names to the suffrage petition presented to Parliament in 1893.
You can listen to the first episode of 'Beyond Kate' here and you can find later episodes here.
