Emma Goldman

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception

Emma Goldman, 27 June 1869 - 14 May 1940
"Tireless agitator and speaker. In 1910 alone, she gave 120 talks in 37 cities in 25 states in the United States to 25.000 people. Jailed in 1917, and described by authorities as "one of the most dangerous women in America," she was deported to Russia in 1919, campaigned against the Bolsheviks in 1920s, joined the Spanish Revolution 1936-39, and died in 1940."
