In Memorium: Betty Friedan
One of the leading figure in the feminism movement of the United States, Betty Friedan, passed away today, her 85th birthday."The problem that has no name — which is simply the fact that American women are kept from growing to their full human capacities — is taking a far greater toll on the physical and mental health of our country than any known disease."
- Betty Friedan, The Feminine Mystique, 1963.
