Woah!! Folks!! We hit the Hephaistos stretch goal!!!
We only have 1 more pin in the main goal to unlock and then its the 2 bonus pins after that and 4 days to do it! I think we can manage that! Thank you so much for all your efforts so far!
OH one more thing! At the Demeter stretch goal I opened up a tier called “The Whole Set” which means if you pledge to this tier you get the entire set of pins no matter how many more we unlock after this!
Omg!!! folks!!! we greatly surpassed the Hestia goal!! unfortunately im out of the house and cant update the project just yet!! We are making great headway towards the icarus bonus goal though!! check it out!!!
On this day, 8 June 1961, 19-year-old Joan Mulholland was one of a group of Freedom Riders who were arrested in Jackson, Mississippi. After participating in numerous sit-ins against segregated restaurants, Mulholland joined the Freedom Riders, a group who fought government non-enforcement of the ban on segregation in public transport in the US South by riding in multiracial groups, often. Two years later, Mulholland was travelling with four other activists in Mississippi when their car was attacked by the KKK, who had orders to kill them. Fortunately they managed to escape, so the Klan instead murdered three other activists: James Chaney, Michael Schwerner and Andrew Goodman. Mulholland remains active to this day.
