Emma Goldman is voiced by: Halia Hirniak.

• Emma Goldman was born June 27th 1869 in Kovno in the Russian Empire. She died May 14th 1940 in Toronto Ontario, Canada. In her almost 70 years she witnessed, often firsthand, World War 1, the early part of World War 2, the Russian Revolution, The Spanish Civil War, the rise and fall of the American Trade Unions, the depression, and the rise and rise of capitalism. she fought for workers rights, wealth distribution long before it was a thing, campaigned for birth control and the rights of women. At heart she was an anarchist, and idealist and most surprisingly a romantic. Yet she was called the most dangerous woman in America...but dangerous for who?
