ERA - We’re almost there!

We’re getting closer to the Equal Rights Amendment becoming a part of the U.S. Constitution. With 38 states having already ratified (shout out to Nevada, Illinois, and Virginia) there is nothing standing in the way of women’s equality (aside from some arbitrary date given in the past). But since we know better, we’re gonna do better, right? This is major! Listen…

SAN DIEGO FIST MEMBERS PARTICIPATE IN INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY EVENT IN SAN DIEGO

Dozens of women and their male supporters including FIST members helped organize a candlelight vigil and rally on March 8th 2023 for International Women's Day in downtown San Diego. The demonstration highlighted women's demands for restoration of women's right to abortion nationally, the registration of the ERA into the Constitution that has already been ratified by 38 states and is being held up by the Biden administration, and an end to male violence against women and girls. Ann Menasche. a co-coordinator of FIST, spoke at the rally urging that women should utilize their own voices and mobilize in the streets, rather than rely on politicians or judges.  Menasche said, "We have the power to change the world, sisters, and there is no better time than now", and led the crowd in a chant made popular by Iranian feminists, "Woman, life, freedom." Andrea Gabay a grassroots feminist activist and organizer for Femme Fight Club, also spoke and was interviewed by a local TV station. The coalition of local feminist groups plan to organize other protests in defense of women's rights in San Diego. Read the full article

Yay! Virginia became the 38th state to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). what does this mean? This means that the ERA has run the gauntlet of the state legislatures. It will now be sent to the Congress to become part of the constitution. They are going to be legal battles over this, but every amendment that has been ratified by the states has become part of the constitution regardless of any deadlines. Stay vigilant. The fight is not over, but we have overcome a big hurdle. Let's celebrate! How did Virginia beat Arizona to the finish line on the ERA? They flipped the Virginia Legislature from red to blue. #equalrights #era #equalpay #equalrightsamendment #virginia https://www.instagram.com/p/B7W-7o7hx5H/?igshid=18uub6kqaelky

Happy #InternationalWomensDay to all those that identify as female! #TheFutureIsFemale #NeverthelessShePersisted #WeCanDoIt💪 We have made advances but have much further to go in our fight for #EqualityForAll including ratifying the #EqualRightsAmendment, passing the #EqualityAct (#TransWomenAreWomen), restoring the #VotingRightsAct in full, reauthorizing the #ViolenceAgainstWomenAct, fighting to control #ClimateChange, protecting #RoeVsWade, and healthcare for all just to name a few. It's all connected to supporting and uplifting women. #IWD2020 (Credits to the creators of the artwork.

#rbg #notoriousrbg If I could choose an #amendment to add to the #constitution, it would be the #equalrightsamendment. I think we have #achieved that through #legislation, but legislation can be #repealed; it can be #altered. So I would like my #granddaughters, when they pick up the Constitution, to see that #notion - that #women and #men are #persons of #equal #stature - I’d like them to see that is basic #principle of our #society. #eranow #era thanks @unitewomendotorg https://www.instagram.com/p/BuHTse2BZWe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1a3v0cc3zpjrs

100 years ago women won the right to vote across the country, but it didn’t stop the disenfranchisement of Black, Indigenous Latina and Asian American women. There is so much work to do, and we will continue to do it. Today I voted wearing red lipstick thinking of our women ancestors, and thanked them for all they did 💄 #womenstrong #womenssuffrage #nineteenthamendment #equalrightsamendment #votingrightsact #unboughtandunbossed #VOTE https://www.instagram.com/p/CEDaYgUn7TI/?igshid=z9ml7uejaymo
