AS A MATTER OF FACT

AS A MATTER OF FACT

"That man over there says that women need to be helped into carriages, and lifted over ditches, and to have the best place everywhere. Nobody ever helps me into carriages, or over mud-puddles, or gives me any best place! And ain't I a woman?"
Sojourner Truth

"More and more women are realizing that only collective strength and action will allow us to be free to fight for the kind of society that meets basic human needs."
Roxanne Dunbar

"I hear a lot of people saying, when talking about girls' empowerment and women as well, you'll often hear people saying, 'You're helping them find their voices', I fundamentally disagree with that. Women don't need to find their voice. They need to feel empowered to use it and people need to be encouraged to listen."
Meghan Markle
