When we talk about equal pay for equal work, women in the workplace are beginning to catch up. If we keep going at this

We've got a generation now who were born with semiequality. They don't know how it was before, so they think, this isn't too
bad. We're working. We have our attache' cases and our three piece suits. I get very disgusted with the younger generation of
women. We had a torch to pass, and they are just sitting there. They don't realize it can be taken away. Things are going to
have to get worse before they join in fighting the battle.

This is no simple reform. It really is a revolution. Sex and race because they are easy and visible differences have been the
primary ways of organizing human beings into superior and inferior groups and into the cheap labour in which this system
still depends. We are talking about a society in which there will be no roles other than those chosen or those earned. We are
really talking about humanism.
