A Call to Action

I bought this book both because of the subject matter and my admiration of what Jimmy Carter has done with his life since he left the presidency. This is from the introduction:

"There is a system of discrimination, extending far beyond any small geographical region to the entire globe; it touches every nation, perpetuating and expanding the trafficking of human slaves, body mutilation, and even legitimized murder on a massive scale. This system is based on the presumption that men and boys are superior to women and girls...This false premise provides a justification for sexual discrimination in almost every realm of secular and religious life."


A Call to Action: Women, Religion, Violence, and Power
