April 30th. Now is the Time to Ratify the Equal Rights Amendment
UPDATE. 4/30/2024. Today would be the perfect day for the President to PUBLISH the Equal Rights Amendment.
But Sexism & Misogyny are alive & well in both Political Parties as well as the quote/unquote "Mainstream Media."
The War on Women has never been worse with Reverse Racism on full display whenever you turn on the TV.
Women are blatantly OPENLY SCAPEDGOATED & BLAMED FOR THINGS THEY DID NOT DO.
Women are blatantly OPENLY SCAPEGOATED & BLAMED FOR THE ACTIONS OF OTHER PEOPLE.
Women did NOT write the Dictionary.
Women did NOT write the English Language.
Women are NOT responsible for NUMBERS
FOR TIME
FOR CALENDARS
and yet WE ARE BLAMED FOR ALL OF THESE THINGS.
How infuriatingly SEXIST of the Democrats.
How infuriatingly SEXIST of the Republicans.
How infuriatingly SEXIST of the "Mainstream Media.":
PEOPLE ARE INDIVIDUALS - STOP BLAMING WOMEN FOR THINGS THAT WE DID NOT DO.
This Blog Post will be among the last few that I write as my Website is coming up for Renewal & I will not be renewing.
7 years with no results is 7 years too long.
Please read below & DEMAND that the President Publish the ERA.
********************************************************************************
UPDATE. Some Conspiracies are not a Theory when they are happening in full-view of the Public with all of us watching. WOMEN have been watching President Biden & Vice President Harris CONSPIRE TO KEEP the EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT out of the Constitution since January 2020.
Following a Trump Administration directive not to publish the LEGALLY-RATIFIED ERA, stunningly the Democrats are continuing the Republican WAR ON WOMEN.
The President has never misses an opportunity to INSULT WOMEN with meaningless Proclamations professing his support for WOMEN & falsely claiming that he is "doing everything in his power" to protect Women's Civil Rights while he is FIGHTING THE ERA IN COURT.
STAGING PROPAGANDA is one of the main points of "Yes, I'd Like to Thank the Academy: How to Tame the Red Carpet in YOUR Office."
This is very much like the premise of George Orwell's "1984."
Rewriting History.
Repeating LIES.
CAUSING FIGHTS.
STAGING SLANDER.
EMBRACING MISOGYNY
& ALL OF THE ABOVE WHILE PUBLICALLY STATING THAT THEY "ARE DOING EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER TO HELP."
********************************
When the State of Virginia Ratified the Equal Rights Amendment into their State Constitution in January of 2020, the previous Administration issued a Directive through the Department of Justice preventing the National Archivist from Publishing the Equal Rights Amendment into the Constitution.
That is literally all that is needed for Ratification.
So I have held off until now to give any kind of official Feedback or constructive criticism in my Blog of the First Presidential Address of the Biden Administration on April 28th.
While it was nice to listen to a President speak with decency without the "saber rattling" of the previous "President," when the Equal Rights Amendment finally DOES get Ratified it will be the 28th Amendment to our Constitution.
Being born on Friday the 13th, those numbers are my #1 pet peeve ever. While I struggle to "do the Math," I do get those NUMBERS.
NUMBERS should be a Communication Tool, not a Weapon to Passive Aggressively attack WOMEN.
Used as a Tool, Numbers are helpful in telling us "How many?"
"How much?"
And "What Time is it?"
Yet NUMBERS have been WEAPONIZED against WOMEN.
Given the fact that the previous "President" couldn't speak without Lying - verifiably so - it's hard to call out dishonesty within my own party.
In fact it is this unwillingness of Republicans to call out the lies of the previous President that make Legislation like HR1 the For the People Act so necessary.
You cannot tell me that our Democratic President is unaware of the 28th Amendment, yet he chose to give his First 100 Days in Office Address with NO MENTION AT ALL WHAT-SO-EVER on April 28th when the speech was given.
Additionally, anyone who even remotely keeps up with the News is aware of Media & Social Media Campaigns to "Stop Hate."
Yet nobody seems to have a problem with Society Blaming WOMEN for those NUMBERS.
It is STUNNINGLY Dishonest.
There was the mistaken notion in some of the Facebook comments that the President had actually talked about the ERA in the speech, pointing out that he did speak about the Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act.
This is true & not surprising, a fact I pointed out all during Women's History Month back in March.
He wrote it.
He did also talk about Women's issues like Paycheck Fairness - this was good, but also not a part of the Equal Rights Amendment. Most accurately this has to do with the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act.
I think the thing that made me the most sad was that the First Lady - who is a School Teacher - didn't encourage him to give his address on a day that wasn't so Insulting to WOMEN.
I wondered what all of the Math Teachers out there - particularly Female Math Teachers were thinking?
This speech could have been given the week before or the week after the first 100 days.
He could have addressed this by SPECIFCALLY mentioning the 28th Amendment yet he chose to do neither of those things.
While my overall Report Card on the President's first 100 days would be an an A- or a B+ he FAILED MISERABLY IN MATH.
Today is April 30th.
NOW would be a good time to Ratify the 28th Amendment - the Equal Rights Amendment into Law.
