Shirley Chisholm Mug

In 1968, Shirley Chisholm became the first Black woman elected to Congress. In 1972, she became the first black candidate for a major-party nomination for President of the United States. This quote is the one that most represents what a trailblazer she truly was, "If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair." This 11 oz. mug is a perfect vessel for coffee, tea, hot chocolate, matcha, or any warm drinks.  A perfect addition to any kitchen or home decor display. Dishwasher and microwave safe. Hand Washing will extend the life of the mug.
