Book Nook - Ordinary Equality

 I recently had the chance to review Ordinary Equality. I had my daughter in mind with this book - she is very conscious of equal rights and protecting underrepresented populations. This book looks at the Equal Rights Amendment and the people who have fought for equality - even before the Constitution was drafted. It specifically looks through a feminist and gender-inclusive lens and highlights the profiles of some people I already knew about and others that I had never heard of before.

This is a great book for anyone interested in history, especially those who champion equal rights.
