About this episode
In this episode, Moira walks Adrian through the life and times of Phyllis Schlafly -- the far-right firebrand who brought down an amendment and arguably helped transform a political party. This first part charts Schlafly's path before she launched her crusade against the Equal Rights Amendment, focusing on: Paleoconservatism, America First, the John Birch Society, Cold Warriors, Goldwater Gilrls and space-based weaponry (for some reason).
Here is a list of books we'll be referring to in both parts of this episode:
Andrea Dworkin, Right Wing Women
Jane J. Mansbridge, How We Lost the ERA
Marjorie J. Spruill, Divided We Stand
Donald T. Critchlow, Phyllis Schlafly and Grassroots Conservatism
Phyllis Schlafly, A Choice Not an Echo
Phyllis Schlafly, Strike from Space
