In 1971, 20 year old Caroline Peters lobbied directly to the director @BLMNational, to allow women to be firefighters. The director told her if she could line up 12 women he would create a pilot program for female fire crews. Caroline showed up with 23 women. #WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/XcOtmKFeTi — PolitiTweet.org
