Florynce Kennedy (1916-2000)

Florynce Kennedy  (1916-2000) Florynce Rae Kennedy was an American civil rights attorney, political activist, and pioneer in second-wave feminism, and an outspoken advocate for liberal causes.

In her cowboy hat, pants, and pink sunglasses, Kennedy gained a reputation as a flamboyant activist who stood up to authority and did not care what people said about her. Only the second African-American woman to graduate from Columbia Law School, Kennedy fought for the rights of Black Panther members and African-American singers discriminated against by music companies. Disgusted by the racism in the courts, Kennedy turned her energy to activism, fighting for women's liberation, abortion rights, civil rights, and consumer protection.

All jobs should be open to everybody, unless they actually require a penis or a vagina.
If men could get pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament.
The biggest sin is sitting on your ass.
