It is far to easy for humans to pick a "first", but more often than not progress starts long before what ends up being popular belief. Long before Kamala, or Hillary, or Palin or Geraldine Ferraro there was this lady.
America owes this lady credit.

Yup. When she wouldn’t give up her seat on that bus, it was a pretty big deal.

Bart Simpson ran the Underground Railroad? Cool. Was that before or after he was the first black woman elected to Congress?

I remember her running when I was a kid, but I was much less political then.

No, you're thinking of the BART. Back in the day the BART was awesome... You could sherpa a monster cooler of beer and liquor to the Coluseum for concerts and they were cool with it......

You were paying attention far more than I did. Back in the 70s my biggest concerns were not to be beaten up by bullies, please my authoritarian parents, and wonder why girls didn't like me.
