Women’s Equality Day
August 26 marks the 78th anniversary of woman
suffrage, when the 19th amendment went into effect
in 1920 The amendment stated that “The right of
citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied
or abridged by the US or by any state on
account of sex." Fifty years later, in
1970, Fifth Avenue in New York saw
over 10,000 marchers in the nation-
wide U S Strike for Equality. Today, Jh
the question is being asked, “Is femi- V ■*’’ Jr
msm dead 9 " but the struggle for gen
der equality continues in every pohti-
cal campaign, employment office, hall of justice, and
individual heart and home nationwide.
A man has to he Joe McCarthy to he called
ruthless. All a woman has to do is put you
on hold. - Mario Thomas (b 1943)
ex- “Never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight."
