Phyllis Schlafly Speaks
Phyllis Schlafly, the inimitable and powerful conservative intellectual, will lecture on behalf of the UMass Republican Club on the crude and destructive nature of radical feminism.
Phyllis Schlafly has been a national leader of the conservative movement since the publication of her best-selling 1964 book, A Choice Not An Echo. She has been a leader of the pro-family movement since 1972, when she started her national volunteer organization, Eagle Forum. In a ten-year battle, Mrs. Schlafly led the pro-family movement to victory over the Equal Rights Amendment, the principal legislative goal of the radical feminists.
Phyllis Schlafly is America's best-known advocate of the dignity and honor that we as a society owe to the role of the full-time homemaker. The mother of six children, she was the 1992 Illinois Mother of the Year. The Ladies' Home Journal named her as one of the 100 most important women of the twentieth century, and she appears in debate on college campuses more frequently than any other conservative.
