Article Needs Re-write:WEAL was Far from conservative edit

WEAL was NOT a conservative organization. It was in many respects the higher education and legal arm of the women’s rights movement. Many of us belonged to WEAL and got a lot changed in higher ed and the legal and political environment at state and federal levels. Read background of Arvonne Fraser —- how are you defining “conservative”? I knew Arvoone and worked on trying to get equality for women under all possible umbrellas- NOW- community organizing- writing- demonstrating- creating university courses- encouraging ourselves and other women to break the barriers legal, religious, regulatory, business, politics, policy, financial and to do so with great intelligence. This really needs re-writing!
