At the beginning of the last century, Emma Goldman's popularity could be compared with a modern rock star. She gathered thousands of people at rallies, went on lecture tours across America and Europe, participated in strikes, and was repeatedly arrested and imprisoned. Her fiery speeches about patriotism, the state, political prisoners and the emancipation of women were warmly received by the public and regularly disrupted by the police. This woman carried out all the radical ideas a hundred years before they originated in your head, and knew everyone worth knowing at that time.
