Emma Goldman
Née en **1869** en Lituanie dans une famille juive et morte en **1940** à Toronto, **Emma Goldman** est une figure majeure de l’anarchisme et du féminisme. Emigrée aux États-Unis à 16 ans, elle y devient une militante infatigable pour la liberté, l’égalité et la justice sociale, ce qui lui vaut d’être surnommée *« la femme la plus dangereuse d’Amérique »* par le FBI. Ses écrits et ses actions en font une référence incontournable pour les mouvements révolutionnaires et féministes du XXe siècle. Son héritage intellectuel, marqué par une critique radicale du capitalisme, de l’État et du patriarcat, continue d’inspirer les luttes contemporaines.
