In case you missed this! A good read: #TheWomen by Kristin Hannah! #VeteransDay
On this day in 1993, the Vietnam Women’s Memorial was dedicated in Washington, D.C. Former army combat nurse Diane Carlson Evans proposed the memorial in 1984 to honor the 265,000 American women who served during the Vietnam era. #VeteransDay

Let’s celebrate this historical day in New York history. Turns out my great-grandmother marched for equal voting rights in New York and also for the entire nation! #equalvotingrights #yourvoteisyourvoice #votingmattets
On this day in 1917, NY women won equal voting rights. The referendum victory—703,129 votes to 600,776—came after years of suffrage marches in NY and a hard-fought loss in a 1915 NY referendum. The victory helped set the stage for the final push for the Nineteenth Amendment. #WeTheMen

What’s your window to the world?
A view through a different arch "window" than I showed previously, along the Telephone Trail in #Sedona, #Arizona, for #WindowsOnWednesday.

So true! Live to read! 📚
Read in public. Read in private. Read e-books, genre books, comics, fanfiction. Read literature. Read nonfiction. Read books you’ve already read. Listen to audiobooks. Read what you want. There’s no such thing as “doing reading the wrong way.”

Important post by @jillhasday.bsky.social - the fight for #equalpayforequalwork continues. #ICYMI
On this day in 1851, Indiana held its first Woman’s Rights Convention in Dublin. The activists called for woman suffrage, equal educational opportunities, and equal pay for equal work. Amanda M. Way was the group’s elected vice president. #WeTheMen

Thrilled to moderate a panel discussion today for the League of Women Voters of Greater Los Angeles featuring @melmason.bsky.social (left) of Politico and @sherlyholmes.bsky.social of the LA Times as we discussed disinformation vs. misinformation and other important issues facing the LA community.

This should happen! Maybe one day!
Congress has never designated a legal public holiday (the kind that closes fed’l offices) to celebrate an important woman in US history or to recognize women’s struggles against sex discrimination. How about Aug. 26, the anniversary of the 19th Amendment & the Women’s Strike for Equality? #WeTheMen

Exactly my thought - definitely created by folks who don’t understand marketing and branding!
My Source News Opinion World? Were they just pulling words out of a hat?

Organizations would never consider giving sewing machines as retirement gifts to women today, thank goodness! #genderequality #womenleaders
On this day in 1905, Maggie Kuhn was born. She became a senior rights activist and co-founded the Gray Panthers in 1970, after she was forced out of her job at 65 and given a sewing machine as a parting gift. #WeTheMen.

Applause to Doris Fleishman for starting this trend! There are many of us who can relate! #personalbranding
On this day in 1891, Doris Fleischman was born. She became a feminist and kept her last name after marrying in 1922. She was the first married American woman to have a passport issued under her "maiden name." She told authorities that she did not want "to travel under a false name.” #WeTheMen

Defend democracy. Stand up. Speak up.
➡️ This Independence Day, we must choose: accept the comfortable fiction that our democracy is business as usual, or acknowledge that nothing is usual about the time we are in, and respond with urgency. #4thofJuly

Check out these interesting facts about the women suffrage movement! #Equality
On this day in 1919, Texas became the first southern state to ratify the 19th Amendment prohibiting sex-based denials of the vote. Texas suffragists had already won partial enfranchisement & they used that voting power to push for the 19th Amendment. #WeTheMen

How Texas Women Delivered the Nineteenth Amendment
Despite their importance to the Nineteenth Amendment’s eventual ratification 100 years ago, Texas’ suffragists remain relatively unknown.

Let’s work toward this! 👏
Today is “National Rosie the Riveter Day.” But Congress has never designated a legal public holiday—the kind that closes federal offices—to celebrate an important woman in American history. We Can Do It!

A must-read by Jessica Grose, especially on #EqualPayDay.
“What chills me is a sincere fear that my daughters — and all the other girls who have never known politics without Trump — will not be treated as fully human by the men and boys in their lives.” writes Jessica Grose.

The #Novartis ad during the #SuperBowl was memorable for many reasons. Hopefully, there will be an increase in mammogram appointments tomorrow.
