Tensions between the two would explode in 1977 at the congressionally funded National Womens Conference in Houston, Texas. As Bella Abzug, Gloria Steinem, and other feminists endorsed hot-button issues such as abortion rights, the ERA, and gay rights, Phyllis Schlafly and Lottie Beth Hobbs rallied with conservative women to protest federally funded feminism and launch a pro-family movement.Divided We Stand reveals how crucial women and womens issues have been in the shaping of todays political culture. After the National Womens Conference, Democrats continued to back womens rights in cooperation with a more diverse feminist movement while the GOP abandoned its previous support for womens rights and defined itself as the party of family values, irrevocably affecting the course of American politics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51894424043808,"sku":"NEW1632863162","price":20.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91Q0INwTH7L.jpg?v=1782021423","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/divided-we-stand-the-battle-over-womens-rights-and-family-values-that-polarized-american-politics-1632863162","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
