Historian, feminist, UU. Currently finishing a book on the long conservative women's movement in 20th-c. America. My other book project is on feminist legal reformers in 20th-c. Texas, particularly at mid-century.
Local newspaper's coverage shows the county sheriff told the private security guys to "get her" and was involved. Kudos to the chief of police for defending the woman's constitutional rights and publicly disagreeing with how the sheriff handled things.

Coeur d’Alene Police Chief Lee White condemned the actions of private security guards who pulled a woman from her chair and dragged her out of an Idaho legislative town hall.

Ah! I did not know that detail (titian-haired). I thought perhaps her name was a clever reference to Boudicca's infamous chariot wheels and her fierceness. 😊

Amazing kitty! She is beautiful and clearly tenacious. I love her name, and, coincidentally, my teenager and I were just talking about Boudicca on Monday.

We rescued her from a storm drain late one night in August (she was 1 lb. and 4 weeks old), and she has been one of the best things to happen to our family in the last year. I love this little weirdo! 🥰

Just watched some of this -- incendiary! Thank you for the suggestion.

Wow! This is great. So rousing!

The next time I do patriotic music in a history or Am Studies class (where we consider patriotic songs from the US and compare with other countries', as well as "patriotic" pop music), this could be an interesting addition. Thanks for sharing. 😊
