Abigail Adams wrote in 1776: "I long to hear that you have declared an independency -- and by the way in the new Code of Laws which I suppose it will be necessary for you to make I desire you would Remember the Ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the Husbands. Remember all Men would be tyrants if they could. If particular care and attention is not paid to the Ladies we are determined to foment a Rebelion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any Laws in which we have no voice, or Representation."
And that's what Caitlin and Frances do in this week's episode, looking at Mary Lemist Titcomb (buried in Concord, MA), who founded the first bookmobile, and Annie Smith Peck (buried in Providence, RI), who was a mountaineer, as well as all-around impressive individual.
Join the two as they discuss their lives, and make a point to "remember the ladies."
