Why read it?
1 author picked The Power of the Positive Woman as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I would not describe this book as a personal favorite, but I do think anyone interested in women’s history and women’s rights should read it. Schlafly was the driving force behind the movement to stop ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment.
Her 1977 anti-feminist manifesto simultaneously argues that the ERA is unnecessary because America has supposedly established women’s equality and that the ERA is threatening because it would take women out of the home. Schlafly outlined a playbook that decades of anti-feminists have followed to the present day.
From Jill's list on women at the center of America’s stories.
