Focus On: The Equal Rights Amendment

I know it has been a while since my last post. It has been hard to return to this blog (or anything for that matter), since my father passed away. But I have kept myself busy with my kids and my book. And, I am happy to note that I’ve made decent progress on the book, which I hope to discuss in another post at some other point.

But, for now, I want to share some exciting news. Last month, I had the honor to be interviewed by award-winning journalist Jane Marie of the production house Little Everywhere for Focus Features’ podcast special on the Equal Rights Amendment.

This podcast marks the release of Focus Features’ new film On the Basis of Sex, which follows the story of Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her fight for gender equality. During the interview, I provided a historical perspective on the current struggle for the ERA, and I touched upon the research I am conducting for my forthcoming book, Gendered Citizenship, which will be published by The University of Nebraska Press. https://focusfeatures.podbean.com/e/focus-on-the-equal-rights-amendment/

If the link doesn’t work, you can also find it on Apple podcasts; just search for “Focus on: The Equal Rights Amendment” from Focus on: Anecdotes to our films.

Hope you enjoy the podcast and check out the film!

Until later, be inspired by the remarkableness that is Ruth Bader Ginsburg. 😉
