Paradise Lost

Those of us who fought the battles of Women's Liberation forty years ago have gotten older. We who fought for the Equal Rights Amendment, which we never got, are reaching retirement age. But that does not mean we can rest. The freedom of our daughters and granddaughters is being threatened as though the last 40 years never happened. We must snap to attention, head back to the battle lines and fight again for the women coming behind us. Freedom isn't freedom if it doesn't last.
