My daughter and I have a message for oppressed women around the world: You are priceless.
Today, on the other side of the world, a woman woke up having no idea she was anything to shout about.
Considering the way he treated her, the way her boss looks at her, all she’s ashamed of, and the money she doesn’t have for a bank account (if she had one)–she’s had too many messages to the contrary.
In the car last week, my kids and I were discussing the American Civil War–and whether they thought it was initially about slavery or about the states’ rights. Maybe you’re like me in these discussions, or in reading books about abolitionists: Maybe you wonder whether you would have had what it takes to do what was illegal and could put your family in jeopardy in order to free slaves.
Confession: I caught myself thinking of slavery as something that happened back then.
As if abolitionists were only needed then.
