Kendal resident Muriel Fox is producing an historic Zoom webinar, airing at 7:00 pm Thursday, February 4, to celebrate the 100th birthday of Betty Friedan, mother of the modern women’s movement.
Titled “Betty Friedan’s 100th Birthday: Moving The Legacy Forward,” the one-hour program salutes Friedan as the author of the world-changing book The Feminine Mystique, and the founder and first president of the National Organization for Women (NOW).
In addition to Muriel, who was a NOW co-founder, speakers will include U.S. Senators Charles Schumer and Elizabeth Warren, feminist icon Gloria Steinem, New York Times columnist Gail Collins, and Friedan’s son and daughter. Invitations to the free webinar can be obtained from the website at: www.veteranfeministsofamerica.com
The program will also be accessible through Facebook and YouTube.
