Unity = POWER
Something exciting is Happening Right Now – in 2008! Can’t you feel it!? As Women we have a great opportunity to come together to be a part of it - let us unite in solidarity.
"It is time for us to say here in Beijing, and the world to hear, that it is no longer acceptable to discuss women's rights as separate from human rights." Hillary Rodham Clinton

Just as our fore sisters did before us, to insure we could walk up to a voting booth, to have a voice to in the course of our nation.
Those same actions opened doors to universities and other institutions to prepare women for government positions, jobs and the equal rights that we have continued to strive for since Susan B. Anthony stood strong for us. She stood strong in a day when it was not welcome for women to speak their mind or take action to their opinion and beliefs.
Continue to come together as we did on March 8th 2008 to celebrate and unite with all women across the United States and internationally--to reaffirm our bond to each other. To celebrate what Susan B. Anthony and the many other courageous women before us achieved; and what we will never take for granted in our daily lives or the years to come.
Never Forget Our Bond or Take for Granted How Far We Have Come:
• We will never forget Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton; and celebrate them Each Year on February 15th (Susan B. Anthony's birthday).
• We will fight for equal rights for women.
• We will mentor and support our fellow women.
•We encourage men, to encourage girls, and women to reach their full potential.
• “It is no longer acceptable to discuss women's rights as separate from human rights.” Hillary Clinton,U.N. 4th World Conference on Women, Beijing 1995
• We will guide and teach young women the history of women’s civil rights in the United States - so we never forget - and we never take it for granted - and keep the change coming!
Let's not forget where we have been--here is a timeline-pass it on to other women and younger women:
