“To my mind, Women’s History Month has become increasingly less an occasion for celebrating the battles won in the modern-day Women’s Movement. Over the past several years, it has become more essential that we use the month to raise public awareness of the fragile status of those wins and the mounting assault on the rights of women and girls in all their diversities, in the United States and globally. We especially need to mobilize political support around adopting the Equal Rights Amendment and explicitly engraft women’s rights in our Constitution.”
