Meet Fabulous Feminist...
BETTY SCHLEIN
FEMINIST AND POLITICAL ACTIVIST
To this day, I continue to support the ongoing fight for equal rights for all. I am proud to be a veteran of the women’s movement and a Veteran Feminist. Most recently, I had the honor to contribute to the remarkable documentary film, Makers, and it is one of my life’s greatest pleasures to continue providing support and encouragement to young activists and the causes we care about.
