Schlafly talk sabout her first foray into politics and how it drew her out of her shell.
Phyllis Schlafly was 28 years old when she ran a 1952 long-shot Congressional campaign in Illinois' 24th district. Though she failed to win the seat, the effort announced her arrival in the emerging conservative movement. By 1964, the mother of six had self-published the best-selling A Choice Not An Echo in support of Barry Goldwater's presidential candidacy. The book remains a crucial text of conservative strategy and self-definition. She founded the "pro-family" Eagle Forum in 1972 and spent much of the decade fighting—and ultimately defeating—ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment, against all foreseeable odds. Even feminists who rued her victory, couldn't deny her monumental impact and game-changing grassroots activism. With her Stop ERA campaign, Schlafly built and mobilized the socially conservative, "pro-family," religious coalition that swept Ronald Reagan to office and remains a dominant force in Republican politics.
