The Lucy Parsons Project: “The Lucy Parsons Project is an online educational resource designed to publicize the life of Lucy Parsons and the struggles she championed. There is a rich and vibrant history of anarchist, labor and racial and gender struggles for social change which have been systematically ignored by conventional histories of the United States. Lucy Parsons, a poor woman of color who took great risks engaging in revolutionary anarchist movements for social change, is a part of this enormous history. She is a unique figure even within the anarchist movement, as one of the only known African-American anarchist women of her era. Many of the struggles in which she took part are responsible for the freedoms and privileges many Americans enjoy today. “
