Forum Title

"The true woman will not be exponent of another, or allow another to be such for her. She will be her own individual self... Stand or fall by her own individual wisdom and strength... She will proclaim the `glad tidings of good news' to all women, that woman equally with man was made for her own individual happiness, to develop... every talent given to her by God, in the great work of life."-Susan B. Anthony

Topic: Empowering our Daughters, Our Future
Posted By: Jeanette Baldwin

I am very concerned about the education our daughters receive in the public and private spheres. Young girls are still taught that they can not succeed in many areas such as math and science. I would like to see Women's History taught at a Secondary level to empower young women with role models, options and a sense of self-worth. I am seeking others who are interested in our daughters' futures and those who are currently doing something about it.
