Today’s story is about a family owned business that was past down between mother and daughter for three generations. Grandmother, Mother, Daughter learning from the one before. Growing a family business for years even when the world tried to deem it as wrong. Our qeens today not only show us a story of strength, freedom but also how broken our justice system is for those who are considered unworthly and how even back then are justice system is flawed.

Cold Blooded Murder or a woman trapped in a marriage with an abusive man? A woman who used love as a means to an end. Or a woman who was open and honest about who she was but the men in her life couldn't take that she expected to be treated as an equal.

When we think of the stars of the Wild Wild West we think of the cowboys, the gunslingers, the American pimps and saloon owners. We glorify their lives even if most of them lived a life that should be cast in shame. The women of the Wild Wild West get pushed into the dark dark depths of history, cast in shame, and told they are victims and have fallen into the sin of freedom.
