On this day in 1787, thirty-nine male delegates signed the U.S. Constitution. I am delighted to be giving a Constitution Day lecture today @UCincinnatiLaw. I will be discussing my new book, We the Men: How Forgetting Women’s Struggles for Equality Perpetuates Inequality. #WeTheMen

On this day in 2016, Phyllis Schlafly died. She blocked ERA ratification in the 70s & 80s, in part by denying the persistence of discrim against women. Here’s an article where I explore how Schlafly created a playbook that anti-feminists have followed since. #WeTheMen

It is amazing to watch my youngest child fall in love with history. He is home sick today and all he wants to do is talk about the American Revolution. He is 9 and already eager to understand cause and effect relationships. Watching a child grow into their sense of self is wonderful.

Had a huge, giant panic attack. Several hours. Have not had one that bad in a long time. Completely lost it. Starting to come back to feeling okay. Lots of tears. Horrible headache now. Amazing how my brain can switch to utter self-destruct mode when it is triggered by something.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.
