Forgotten Freedom Fighters - Liberty's Hand: The Conscious Pen of Mercy Otis Warren

“The rights of the individual should be the primary object of all governments.”

So said Mercy Otis Warren, a liberty activist, hundreds of years ago and so say we today. The Freedom movement is not a boy’s club. It might sometimes look like one, but reason tells us that it certainly is not, nor has it ever been. Behind the scenes, countless women have grasped the hand of Liberty and put their efforts to her aid. Some of them step forth and stand out, some do not, but we are here, and have been here from the beginning.

In the past, women were not always afforded the same respect and voice that we are beginning to enjoy. It is heartening that the Freedom movement of today has made for itself a mission to recognize the validity and necessity of the contributions of women. It was not always so that women were openly respected in this manner, but even in the past, some women have stepped over the restrictive margins imposed by the collective ignorance and recognized their own capacity for brilliance. We have always been here, and always there have been open minded men who encouraged and accepted our emergence.
