Yeah, lisah, if she doesn't has to focus on specific women, she could write about women jockeys, or women in auto racing, or other women like the one Cash mentioned.
I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Ann, that's a ferret.
lisah, the more I think about your question, the less I feel qualified to answer. But here are a few thoughts.
I suspect most students will focus on gender equality. So someone like Rosa Parks or Harriet Tubman might be a slightly unexpected choice.
Maybe Pat Schroeder. I don't hear about her much today, but she was quite a voice in the House.
Frances Wright and Sojourner Truth, public speakers (pro-free love and anti-slavery, respectively) in an era when women simply didn't engage in public speaking.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
How about Swanee Hunt? [link] She's current.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Congrats on the FAQ Update!
Yay for Nilly baby! So incredibly cute.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Nilly! Look at that, you made a tiny person. So cute! He has a mouth made for smiling.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Thank you all. We should be lucky to have a baby half a cute as the Nillster.

More recent history (I KNOW): Geraldine Ferraro?
Yeah, I'd stay away from that one. She had a lot of fail the past couple of years.

Nilly, what an awesome human you made! He looks so curious and happy (no surprise).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, fuck. I just realised that the timesheet entries I'd been making hadn't been being saved. So my time off hasn't been recorded for the past couple months.

Sure, but she had a Moment.
