    The Fight For Equality! Activist David Boim Shares Historical POV and What Needs to Happen

In this podcast episode of Female Disruptors Office Hours, David and Lisa talked about how David started his passion for civil rights and how he helps women to level the playing field. Topics covered include Civil Rights & Anti-War Activism (1963) Nancy Story (1971) ERA Movement (1978) Support Candidates Cultural Wars What can women do? Are the answers often found in the past? David takes us on a look back for a moment. Women's Sunday was a suffragette march and rally held in London on 21 June 1908 Black Friday was a suffragette demonstration in London on 18 November 1910, in which women marched to the Houses of Parliament as part of their campaign to secure voting rights for women. The day earned its name from the violence meted out to protesters, some of it sexual, by the Metropolitan Police and male bystanders. On March 3, 1913, the day before Woodrow Wilson's presidential inauguration, thousands of women marched along Pennsylvania Avenue--the same route that the inaugural parade would take the next day--in a procession organized by the National American Woman Suffrage Association. ERA movement in the 1970s Suffragette Movement David shares about the movement today. Those in power want those not in power to fight among themselves.
