"Well behaved women seldom make history" Laurel Thatcher The theme above can be heard throughout the conversation in this episode. I got the chance to sit down with one of my favorite history podcast hosts, Alycia from Civis and Coffee, and discuss a woman who immigrated to the US and took up the fight for her fellow immigrant women in the textile industry. Clara was feisty, strong and consistent throughout her life. Come join us and hear her story and more! Cheers.
