Celebrating Independence Day, 7/4/1917
“On Independence Day, July 4, 1917, in front of the White House eleven women stood with banners bearing the words, GOVERNMENTS DERIVE THEIR JUST POWER FROM THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED. They, too, were arrested, tried, and sent to jail for “obstructing the traffic.”- Doris Stevens
Happy Independence Day!
