Formally known as "𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑾𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒏'𝒔 𝑫𝒆𝒇𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒕𝒖𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑳𝒆𝒂𝒈𝒖𝒆", the 𝑩𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝑺𝒂𝒔𝒉 is an organisation that dates back to the 1950's and was founded by a group of liberal women who opposed government policies by means of marches, convoys, demonstrations and vigils. The name "𝑩𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝑺𝒂𝒔𝒉" derives from the black sashes which members wore over one shoulder during protests, as seen in the image below.
