Today's Doodle: Journalist Jovita Idar, fierce critic of anti-Mexican violence & border militarization, and great Tejana feminist, who stopped Texas Rangers from shutting down her family newspaper in 1914. She resisted white supremacists & stood for truth. Let's do the same. pic.twitter.com/RQcCWncgJpLiterary Agent
