Hello from the great state of New York, city of Rochester! We’re here in search of Susan B. Anthony, and hope to find her at her homestead later today. We’ll report on that and Seneca Falls on Friday. My apologies for being out of touch so long, but we’ve had some glitches accessing wifi outside of my iPhone. Here’s what we’ve been up to before today.

Certified sexist Jason Materra doesn’t think that working mothers have the right to breastfeed.
Oregon Live reports:
He recently gave himself some publicity by posting some highly edited video on YouTube of himself questioning Minnesota Senator Al Franken about some provisions in the health care bill and repeatedly interrupting while Franken tried to answer. Mattera apparently has serious problems with government investment into public health as well as mandates for employers to provide time for breastfeeding mothers to………………you guessed it, breast feed or to express milk to take home …

Any good physician will tell you it’s almost always better to use non-drug alternatives before moving on to pharmaceuticals.  Diet and exercise to lower cholesterol and high blood pressure; yoga for a sore lower back, those nose bands for snoring.  You may need to get that prescription eventually, but many times these so-called ‘lifestyle changes’ do the trick.   So, while the pharmaceutical companies work on coming up with a drug to treat low libido …

Jason Mattera thinks sexism is cool.
Mr. Mattera is the 26 year-old author of a new book,  Obama Zombies.  The byline is “How the Liberal Machine Brainwashed My Generation.”
The New Agenda’s Amy Siskind read his book and put up a post on her Facebook page yesterday about a chapter on the media bias.  The Facebook post received a lot of attention:  including a comment from Nora Bredes, President of The Eleanor Roosevelt Legacy Committee, letting us know that Mr. Mattera had recently made a sexist remark on Elana Kagan, Secretary Napolitano …

Headlights, tah tahs, bosoms, boobies, a nice rack, guzungahs, knockers, titties, mammaries, the twins, etc.  You know the terms, you have heard them before.
Talking about a woman’s breasts just as an aside doesn’t normally come up in civilized conversation.  I don’t hear the topic of a woman’s knockers coming up in an engineering meeting or a discussion about university curriculum.  If the topic does tend to be brought out in the open it is …

My passion is women’s history, as most regular readers know. Over years of pro-woman activism, I have found nothing that touches the heart and fuels the imaginations of young women quite like learning their own history does. Women of every generation might disagree about what the exact issues facing us are, and how we might address them, but nearly every one of them is surprised to learn the that stories exist that were denied them as they labored through lectures on the American Revolution or the Civil War, etc.
Knowing this …

The first woman ever elected to executive office in North Carolina, Marshall …
