Later today, history will be made. Glass ceilings will be shattered when Hillary Clinton accepts the presidential nomination at the Democratic National Convention.
Twenty-one years ago, a Florida Walmart pulled a shirt from its shelves that said "Someday a woman will be PRESIDENT!", saying it was offensive and against the store's "family values".
Today, not only is the thought of a female becoming president reasonable, but in reality, it could be happening in just a few short months.
Let's celebrate this historical moment with a Coffee Break featuring female-fronted bands.
Songs played
Stupid Girl - Garbage
Venus - The Shocking Blue
Kiss Them For Me - Siouxsie and The Banshees
Moaning Lisa Smile - Wolf Alice
Crimson And Clover - Joan Jett and The Blackhearts
Hold On - Alabama Shakes
