EXTRA CREDIT!

extra credit: feminism


Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, union organizer and early feminist. Funny story with this one: I bought it at the same time as all the above, at the Mandala closing sale, thinking it would be excellent to supplement my art cards with some historical educational material. Three weeks later, I was cleaning my room and found an old postcard book in a dresser drawer that my grandmother gave to me when I was probably 12 or so: Women Who Dared. Oops. Thanks, Grandma!
