Two years later, she captured headlines across the globe when she married James Graham Phelps Stokes, scion of one of the legendary 400 families of New York high society. Together, this unusual couple joined the burgeoning Socialist Party and, over the next dozen years, moved among the liveliest group of activists and dreamers this country has ever seen. Their friends and houseguests included Emma Goldman, Big Bill Haywood, Eugene V. Debs, John Reed, Margaret Sanger, Jack London, and W.E.B. Du Bois. Rose stirred audiences to tears and led strikes of restaurant waiters and garment workers. She campaigned alongside the country's earliest feminists to publicly defy laws against distributing information about birth control, earning her notoriety as "one of the dangerous influences of the country" from President Woodrow Wilson. But in a way no one foresaw, her too-short life would end in the same abject poverty with which it began. 600 10 $a Stokes, Rose Pastor, $d 1879-1933. 650 0 $a Feminists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women socialists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women political activists $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Jewish refugees $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women immigrants $z United States $v Biography. 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Women. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / Social History. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY / United States / 20th Century. $2 bisacsh 600 17 $a Stokes, Rose Pastor, $d 1879-1933. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00159817 650 7 $a Feminists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00922831 650 7 $a Jewish refugees. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01730523 650 7 $a Women immigrants. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177764 650 7 $a Women political activists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178374 650 7 $a Women socialists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01178553 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a Feminists $z United States $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Women socialists $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Women political activists $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Jewish refugees $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Women immigrants $v Biography. $2 sears 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Hochschild, Adam. $t Rebel Cinderella. $d Boston : Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2020. $z 9781328866769 $w (DLC) 2019027933 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210413010508.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=954D45F49C1D11EB89538EB42CECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
