Dr. Julie Suk on the Future of the Equal Rights Amendment

We thought the long effort to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment had effectively been defeated back in 1982. Well, not so fast. The issue has re-emerged and the fight goes on. Bob’s guest, Dr. Julie Suk, an expert on the ERA, and a professor of sociology and political science at The CUNY Graduate Center, thinks we need to adjust the way we look at the ERA. She’d like us to adopt a perspective that focuses more on the real-world needs of women in the 21st century.
