What?
NOW stands for National Organization for Women and their goal is to help women talk about the issues that they face on a daily basis in society. Some of the issues that are discussed in NOW are Lesbian Rights, Abortion and Reproduction Rights, Ending Sex Discrimination, Promoting Diversity and Ending Racism, and so MANY more. Each and every group has members and leaders. The goals of each group are to bring awareness of what they are fighting for. Even though there are different groups, they are similar in the fact that they are all fighting to stop discrimination against them. Some groups go as far as going to government officials and even congress to pass bills/laws. It takes a lot to go farther up the ladder of officials, but these women are willing to fight for what they know is right! Each state has different organizations, but again they all work together to fight for justice and equality.
