by Patricia Britt


The President our top man in the White House with two gorgeous daughters, and a renaissance woman wife posted a statement on the 95th anniversary of the 19th Amendment.

Cut and past to see the history of women in the United States House of Representatives.

Women of achievement know how to materialize stardust from Cleopatra to Susan B. Anthony to Rosey the Riveter to Amelia Earhart to  Mahalia Jacksong to Nichelle Nichols to Shirley Chisholm to Elizabeth Taylor Condoleeza Rice, to  Constance Rice to Debbie Stabenow to Valerie Jarrett to Michelle Obama to the Army Rangers to Halle Berry commanding a $15 million salary for movies. Women have established their equality throughout the centuries with their ability to lead even when it wasn't acknowledged. Even though women only make .64 to every male dollar in America the playing field is probably close to as level as it's going to be for the next 5 years until another dime shift occurs.

The history of women lets us know women are equal, and gaining ground every day no matter how long it takes for our worth to be recognized.

A woman is the essence of love nurturing family, and coworkers from a natural core, yet some of us are strictly business blazing a strong trail so that the holistic softies can take up rank along the trail.

As the Enjoli commercial used to go "I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan, and never ever let you forget you're a man." We can be as soft, or as strong as need be to stand with, or stand on our own in the modern world.

The 19th Amendment secures our right to vote for candidates to represent our interest, a right not in jeopardy unlike the 15th Amendment. As American women we need to apply our hearts, and intellect to perpetually secure the vote for all with consideration to all the lives that worked to bring these amendments about.

If Oprah (schools) is the "love brand," then Tyra Banks (Summer camps) is the "real brand." Both spirit mothers with tribes who've leaned in to give a glimpse of what fierce womanhood is about, with a sense of style, humility, and humour in the worldwind of 24/7 notoriety in synchronicity with the heartbeat of youth.
