A
powerful new call-to-action series was launched with
the New York Times bestselling MoveOn's 50 Ways to
Love Your Country. The second book in the series,
50 Ways to Improve Women's Lives, written by nationally
recognized women, is poised to again become an instrument
for change and reinvigorate a movement.
50
Ways to Improve Women's Lives parlays the collective
expertise of the National Council of Women's Organizations'
200 member organizations - which include Planned Parenthood,
NOW, League of Women Voters, Code Pink, the AAUW,
National Council of Negro Women, and the YWCA - and
features 50 personal, inspiring essays with "Helping
Ourselves" or "Call-to-Action" sidebars.
Covering
subjects as diverse as pay equity, reproductive health,
childcare, racism, and women in leadership, the book
addresses topics that affect women (and all of us!)
on a personal and political level, and provides readers
with ways to move beyond old arguments and turn inspiration
into action.
Contributors
include Madeline Albright, Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan,
Eleanor Smeal, Hillary Clinton, Congresswomen Maloney,
Slaughter and Pelosi, and many others.
