Reviews
Gr 7-10--On July 3, 1984, the Supreme Court ruled that the U.S. Jaycees, a not-for-profit civic organization, must allow women to become full members. This decision reaffirmed that "sex discrimination will not be accepted in the public marketplace." Gold suggests that the struggle for women's rights is as old as our nation; she offers highlights from that struggle, from Abigail Adams asking her husband to "remember the ladies" through the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which banned sex discrimination. Legal precedents and opinions are presented in an accessible manner and black-and-white archival photos enhance the readable text.
