“La Constitución que escribieron fue diseñada para proteger los derechos de los ciudadanos blancos, hombres. Como no había Padres Fundadores negros, no había madres fundadoras, una gran pena, en ambos casos. No es demasiado tarde para completar el trabajo que dejaron sin hacer. Hoy, aquí, debemos empezar a hacerlo.”
For the Equal Rights Amendment, 10 de agosto de 1970.
Original: «The Constitution they wrote was designed to protect the rights of white, male citizens. As there were no black Founding Fathers, there were no founding mothers — a great pity, on both counts. It is not too late to complete the work they left undone. Today, here, we should start to do so.»
