The Equal Rights Amendment

The Equal Rights Amendment, formulated as early as 1923 by the National Women's Party, proposed that "e<span>quality of rights under the law shall not be abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex." When feminist groups in the 1960s and 1970s pushed for Congress to propose this as an amendment to the Constitution, conservatives such as Schlafly opposed it. The House of Representatives gave its approval in 1970; the Senate did so in 1972.  The next step was ratification by the states.  But the campaign against the amendment led by Schlafly contributed to its demise, failing to achieve ratification.  A key point Schlafly focused on was that women would then be subject to military draft and military combat service in the same way as men, and this became the key issue regarding the defeat of the Equal Rights Amendment.</span>

In Another Brick in The Wall, one of the most famous tracks of the group, Pink's detachment already has a form, and it is the title itself that suggests it any tragedy, injustice, or abuse can only be “another brick” in an already existing wall.

39 years ago today, the South African government issued a ban on Pink Floyd's Another Brick In The Wall after the lyrics were used by school children to protest their inferior education in apartheid-era black schools.

Another Brick in the Wall is a three-part composition on Pink Floyd's 1979 rock opera The Wall, written by bassist Roger Waters. "Part 2", a protest song against corporal punishment, and rigid and abusive schooling, features a children's choir.
