A short eulogy for Friedan

I would like to give a short eulogy for Betty Friedan, who has died today. Friedan practically founded the modern women's rights movement by writing The Feminine Mystique and co-founding NOW, the National Organization for Women. Friedan supported equal wages for women and wanted to liberate them from undignified, un-individualistic lives as mothers and housewives. Additionally, she opposed the condemnation of old people to tyrannical, meddling nursing homes. Friedan was a courageous, influential fighter for equality, not only for women but for all people.
