Danielle,
They were some of the most impactful moments of our presidential campaign.
Across five historic locations, Elizabeth gave five major speeches about extraordinary women across centuries who stepped out of their daily lives to fight for change.
Now, to keep highlighting those important stories, we've put together a print collection of those speeches, along with photos from the campaign trail and images from the historical events Elizabeth is discussing.
women who went on strike and won better wages and working conditions — from Black washerwomen in Atlanta, Georgia, to immigrant mill workers in Lawrence, Massachusetts, to Latina janitors in Los Angeles, California,
the difference that one persistent woman like Frances Perkins could make when fighting alongside a grassroots movement,
and the ongoing fight against the forces of division, greed, and corruption.
These women in history — whose stories aren't always told — laid out a roadmap for how working people of different races and backgrounds can come together, take on the rich and powerful, and make big, structural change.
And that roadmap has never been more necessary.
"Only Righteous Fights" is also a time capsule of the presidential campaign that we built together — from Elizabeth's announcement in Lawrence, Massachusetts, to her closing speech, and all the selfie lines and pinky promises along the way.
Commemorate these stories of persistent women throughout history — and help fuel the fight for the bold reforms we need.
