Born in 1920, Bella Abzug was a prominent American lawyer, feminist, and politician.

Serving three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives, she passionately advocated for women's rights, social justice, and peace.

Abzug co-founded the National Women's Political Caucus and played a crucial role in the establishment of the National Women's Conference in 1977. #WomensHistoryMonth

I’m so happy to share the trailer from “Bella! A Documentary Film” today which would have been Bella’s birthday. I campaigned for Bella because she was a champion for a woman’s place in politics and fought hard for equal rights for all Americans.

And now to the main event: Rep. Bella Abzug!

“[Abzug] arrived in Congress a year and a half ago and began shouting. She was disrespectful, abrasive, a rule-breaker who worked 16 hours a day and saw no reason why others could not. She won’t hedge her radical opinions.”

OG 😌👑

Happy Thursday evening!

I found an original 1972 copy of Life Magazine featuring original NY Congresswoman Bella Abzug at a thrift store.

There are some gems in here I couldn’t help but share:
