Ep41. Brave Dame Mary & Curious Chinese Girl

The ladies are coming at you from the past to talk about some ladies from even further back! First, Emily shares a shorty but a goodie about Lady Mary Bankes who, along with a small team of ladies and guards, defended her castle against 500+ enemy soldiers! Then, Kelley travels back to the 20s to share the story of Anna May Wong, a Chinese-American actress who battled racism, stereotypes, and the Hays Code to the top! Cheers to another year of Wining About Herstory! ** Mornings with u by Barradeen | https://soundcloud.com/barradeenMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unportedhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en_US   Support the show10% Off Your First Month of BetterHelp: betterhelp.com/herstory www.buymeacoffee.com/wahpod Join the Funerary Cult: https://www.patreon.com/winingaboutherstorySponsor a Glass of Wine: https://buymeacoffee.com/wahpodGet Merch: https://wining-about-herstory.myspreadshop.com/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
