🗳️ On this day in 1893, New Zealand became the first country to grant all women the right to vote in national elections.

Shout out to the heroines who made it happen:
✊ Kate Sheppard (petition powerhouse)
✊ Annie Schnackenberg (WCTU leader)
✊ Meri Te Tai Mangakahia (Mana wahine trailblazer)

Girl power, global legacy. Rosie would be proud.

These women didn’t care.

They designed the world anyway — one blueprint at a time.

Purses have always been more than a fashion accessory! Join us to explore the relevance of these personal items to movements for social, economic, and political change 👜

On Saturday, August 9th, Firestorm Books will be hosting Furman University professor Kathleen B. Casey for a presentation of her new book "The Things She Carried: A Cultural History of the Purse in America." In conversation with fellow feminist educator Emily Taylor, Kathleen will discuss how and why purses became intimately linked with evolving understandings of gender, travel, waged work, and modernity.

"The Things She Carried" reveals how bags, sacks, and purses provided the methods and materials for activism, allowing carriers to transgress critical boundaries at key moments. Learn more about this author event, and the book, at https://firestorm.coop/events/3413-a-cultural-history-of-the-purse-in-america.html (link in bio).

She’s surviving.

Katherine Mansfield wrote hunger into her fiction — and devoured the world that tried to contain her.

The Victorian ideal woman was pure, passive, obedient… and invisible.

That wasn’t tradition — it was control in a corset.
This system didn’t die. It just evolved.
