Self taught engineer & inventor– her most famous invention made life easier, then paper bags were cone shaped. She gave them a flat bottom.
Her first unpatented invention as a 12 year-old employee of a cotton mill made it safer for workers at that time mostly kids-she is well worth a deep dive.

Tomorrow is National Inventors Day. Margaret Knight co-founded the Eastern Paper Bag Company in Hartford to manufacture the grocery bags. She engineered the machine that automatically cut, folded, and glued paper bags, making a slow process efficient.

ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

On this Day, we honor the broad shoulders of the 1960s civil rights activists and remember that, before them, CT women were already shouldering the cause of justice. One of them was educator, author, and activist Sarah Lee Brown Fleming.

The modern civil rights movement, stood on the shoulders of giants, many of these giants were women… to quote Coretta Scott King “Women have been the backbone of the whole civil rights movement. Women have made it possible for the movement to be a mass movement.”
