The American Revolution led to a transformation of the social order of the 18th Century, and women played a significant role during this dramatic era. Prominent Americans Betty Friedan, Dr. Rita Hauser, Dr. Margaret Mead, Patricia Linh, Prof. Richard B. Morris, Bennetta Washington, Governor Ella Grasso, Dr. Jesse Bernard, and Catherine Filene Shouse relate progress made in the women's movement today to the leadership provided by their sisters of 1776: Abigail Adams, Phyllis Weatley, Mercy Otis Warren, Molly Pitcher, etc.
