About the Equal Means Equal Initiative
Did you know the US constitution does not protect against sexual discrimination? Did you know that activists have been trying to change that for nearly 100 years (since 1923)? Well, if you don't, don't feel bad. 96% of Americans don't know about the Equal Rights Amendment.
“The documentary successfully demonstrates that the time is right to now revisit the ERA, and clearly shows that many of our societal problems are inter-connected, the origins of which can be traced to the discrimination of and violence towards women.” – Forbes
We must actively fight to reverse course on gender discrimination in this country by ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment now, before we see further erosion to hard-fought gains. It’s long past time the Constitution acknowledged women as equal citizens, deserving of full human and civil rights. Learn more at equalmeansequal.org
