Equal Rights Amendment Has Rocky Past, Uncertain Future

The Equal Rights Amendment was conceived over 100 years ago, and has had some hard-won progress, as shown in the graphic here.  To date, 38 states in green have ratified it, but other states have stalled.

This depiction of the “deep red” states is a familiar one.  Florida prides itself on the moniker, “It’s where woke goes to die.”

Some of this systemic inequality is cruel and should be eliminated.  Others, e.g., southern white straight males, frolic in it.
