Description: "The Ladies' Sewing Circle and Terrorist Society, formed in 1974 within the Oregon Women's Political Caucus, empowered women to break free from societal expectations of subservience. Their mission: to foster networking and meaningful discussions among smart, creative women in informal groups like book clubs and sewing circles. With a name blending irony and humor, this pioneering group symbolized women's growing resistance to inequality during a transformative era."
