135 Tweets for 135 years: Rankin Matters!


In June 2015 the Richard B. Russell Library for Political Research and Studies will mark the 135th anniversary of Congresswoman and activist Jeannette Rankin’s birth with the social media series, 135 tweets for 135 years: Rankin Matters.

Throughout the month, our Twitter feed @RussellLibrary will spotlight selected quotes, events, and achievements drawn from the life and career of this trailblazer for equity, justice, fairness, and peace in American politics. You can follow the Rankin Matters Series at #Rankin135. We're also planning a little birthday party, so stay tuned to the blog for details on that event happening June 11th!

The Richard B. Russell Library for Political Research and Studies holds the Jeannette Rankin Papers and is the official repository for the records of the Jeannette Rankin Foundation.
