      Enjoyed “Are We There Yet.” Allie Hixson PhD a woman from Kentucky died several weeks ago. She worked tirelessly for the Equal Right Amendment but died before this goal ever became a reality. I attended many meetings with her and her passion and fire would touch each and every one of us. She drove us on to write letters, speak, educate ourselves, and talk with our representatives. I just hope that there are young women out there that will pick up this banner.
