KATRINAS\u00e2\u20ac\u2122S DREAM<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0is holding their 2nd<\/sup> ANNUAL WOMEN\u00e2\u20ac\u2122S EQUALITY DAY VIGIL, MARCH and RALLY<\/strong> to the US Capitol on August 26, 2016<\/strong> to prioritize and promote the Three State Strategy to pass the Equal Rights Amendment<\/strong>. The rally is being held to mobilize all people to pass the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). The day will start in silence, meditation, and prayer at 8:00 am at St. Stephen\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s and the Incarnation<\/a>. Many will meet following the service at 9:30 am to begin there walk in peaceful contemplation taking the same path that many feminist took on August 26, 2015 and commemorate the first march and rally. Others will join up around 11:30 am the White House and proceed to the US National Mall<\/a> where the rally will begin at 12:00 noon. The speakers will talk about the intersectionality of racism and sexism, and systemic issues that the ERA would address. They will share their wisdom and personal experiences on the Racial Gender Pay Gap, women\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s health care, violence and the rape culture women live with everyday.<\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong>The Equal Rights Amendment<\/strong><\/p>\n

Section 1. Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Section 2. The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Section 3. This amendment shall take effect two years after the date of ratification.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The ERA is a US Constitutional Amendment that would empower all women and provide for gender equality. The ERA is the unfinished business of the Civil Rights Movement. Let’s Change the World.<\/p>\n
