I am chair of the committee appointed to implement the Women's Rights Anniversary resolution passed at the 1998 General Assembly. The resolution calls for congregations, districts, and individuals to get involved in honoring the Unitarian and Universalist women who were active in the women's rights and anti-slavery movements.

We're planning a presentation at GA 2000 in Nashville that will recognize the contributions of everyone across the continent toward implementing the resolution. As a long-time religious educator, I knew you'd want to be involved and that you'd welcome a chance to involve the children and youth in your congregation. There are lots of ways you can do this:

• Plan a special worship service honoring a Unitarian or Universalist foremother who was an active suffragist or abolitionist.
• Help children draw pictures of their activist foremothers or write stories or poems or create a play about one or more of them.
• Encourage junior highers and highschoolers to do some research, find out whether there were such women in your congregation, town, or state, and plan ways to honor them.
• Take photos of all the above activities and send them to me by March 15 to be included in our GA presentation.
• Collect the children's drawings, poems, stories, etc. and bring or send them to GA next June for a special display we're planning.
• Go ahead and think of other ways!

If you would like a list of UU women who were active in the women's rights and/or antislavery movements and major events in those movements, I'll be glad to mail you a copy. Just let me know. You can reach me at (617) 738-7723 or jgoodbrook@aol.com. Many, many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!
