From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Amy Geraldine Stock, known as Dinah to her friends, was one of the most important activists of the Anti-imperialism movement as a member of the British Labour Movement, an organisation sympathetic towards Indian and African nationalisms. By 1927 she was the secretary of the Centre against Imperialism along with Independent Labour Party (ILP) politician and anti-war activist Fenner Brockway. She had adventures all over the world, including a stay at Gandhi‘s Ashram in India.[1]
