Emma Goldman, Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Mother Jones and the influence of these women on the rise of the labor movement in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and the impact they had had on the anti- war movement during WWI.
Seeing that the US calls it a "possession" and Puerto Ricans call it a colony, I can't really blame them. Especially after the botched recovery during Darth Cheeto's mis-administration.

I came upon your site only recently, so not sure if you’ve covered it previously. US Marine Corps birthday, 10 November 1775, Tun Tavern, a bar in Philadelphia. (Have the book on order, so apologies if it’s already in one of the editions.)
I would love to buy your book but $90+ postage is just a bit much 😭. All I want is for it to be sent to Australia 🦘. So I will continue to enjoy your posts, history has never been so interesting 😀
