Equal Means Equal: Free Documentary Film at Ventura College Th. 2/8/18
Do you know that women and men do not have equal rights under the constitution in the United States?
It’s true: the Equal Rights Amendment, introduced in 1972, never passed. Men and women do not have equal rights or equal treatment.
Most Americans think we already we have this protection, but we don’t. The ERA needed 38 states to pass it by 1982, but not enough did! Nevada just passed it last year, and we still need two more states to ratify it before it’s actually an amendment!
Perhaps it is finally time to pass the Equal Rights Amendment suggests Kamala Lopez’s documentary film Equal Means Equal which “offers an unflinching look at how women are treated in the United States today by uncovering outdated and discriminatory attitudes that influence seemingly disparate issues, from workplace harassment to domestic violence, rape and sexual assault to the foster care system, and the healthcare conglomerate to the judicial system” according to organizers of an event which brings the film to Ventura College ASC 150 on Thurs. Feb. 8. To learn more, visit: www.equalmeansequal.com.
