Gerda Lerner Quotes

The appeal of the New Right is simply that it seems to promise that nothing will change in the domestic realm. People are terrified of change there, because it’s the last humanizing force left in society, and they think, correctly, that it must be retained Picture Quote #1

Women’s history is the primary tool for women’s emancipation Picture Quote #1

The effect on men has been very bad, too, of the omission of women’s history, because men have been given the impression that they’re much more important in the world than they actually are. It has fostered illusions of grandeur in every man that are unwarranted. If you can think as a man that everything great in the world and its civilization was created by men, then naturally you have to look down on women. And naturally, you have to have different aspirations for your sons and for your daughters Picture Quote #1

When I started working on women’s history about thirty years ago, the field did not exist. People didn’t think that women had a history worth knowing Picture Quote #1

The main thing history can teach us is that human actions have consequences, and that certain choices, once made, cannot be undone Picture Quote #1
