Oh, interesting. Thank you very much. I’m happy to add it to my list. I watched a limited time doc on amazon prime a few years ago, I thought was called The Family, but I can't find it. The book sounds fantastic!

I'm nearly done with How the South Won the Civil War by Heather Cox Richardson, which I’d love to read again. Then it's off to Fantasyland: How America Went Haywire: A 500-Year History by Kurt Anderson.
Then I will finaIly understand how Trump ruined years of our lives and my therapy will be complete.
Lol. That title (How the South Won the Civil War) gave me a start. Met a 20 year old from TN in a bookshop a few years back who told me he'd been taught that we won the war in Vietnam. But I looked yours up, and it sounds interesting too. Although the synopsis gives the impression she may be buying into the male-generated "helpless women" myth a bit too much? Let me know.
Haven't read this yet but it sounds way overdue, just from what I know of history: The Women's History of the Modern World: How Radicals, Rebels and Everywomen Revolutionized the Last 200 years by Rosalind Miles. (And you could sure go back further than 200 years!)
Did Richardson mention that Reagan, as Gov of California, was the first to adopt Roe v Wade? (Just as Trump was a Democrat for years till friends persuaded him that playing up to Christian right-winger would win him a huge and devoted voting block, Reagan did the same. All charlatans.)
There was an excellent documentary on Netflix called "Reversing Roe" I highly recommend, if it's still on.
Oh, no. I've been following Professor Richardson's excellent Substack for nearly half a decade and even went to a lecture in 2022 where she talked about How the South Won the Civil War. Richardson is too much of an intellectual who, I imagine, grew up in circumstances that led her to continue the battle against the subjection of women by weak, ignorant, and narcissistic men.
No, I'm at a part where Richardson is transitioning from the Reconstruction Era, but I understand how Reagan and others radicalized some Christians against women's reproductive healthcare to garner votes for the GOP. However, I didn't know that in 1967, six years before Roe v. Wade, former California governor Reagan "signed a bill giving any doctor the power to approve an abortion."

This is her Substack post after the corrupt SCOTUS conservatives overturned Roe v. Wade: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/june-24-2022

Republicans deserver every bit of what's coming for them at the ballot box this year and for years to come.
Thanks for the suggestions!
Thank you for yours, too, Gleb Kane! Interesting subjects!
