rejectedprincesses:“Battlin” Bella Abzug, the o.g. Nasty Woman, was born on this day in 1920. In one Congress term, she pushed forward Title IX, the Freedom of Information Act, the Equal Rights Amendment, the first federal gay rights act, and Nixon’s impeachment.

I covered her in book two. -- source link
