Teach me to walk in the light of his love.

Teach me to pray to my Father above.

Teach me to know all the things that are right.

Teach me to walk in the light.

Thank you for joining us again today on Mormon Stories Podcast.

In the continuation of our series on women in the LDS Church,

today we take a look back at one of the most important events in 20th century Mormon feminism.

That is, the LDS Church's reactions to the United States government's Equal Rights Amendment or ERA in the 1970s.

In this episode, Martha Sontag Bradley, author of pedestals and podiums Utah Women Religious Authority and Equal Rights,

discusses her research into the LDS Church's reactions to the Equal Rights Amendment.

Most LDS historians and feminists credit this amazing series of events as the major impetus for the Mormon feminist activism that emerged in the 1980s and early 1990s.

We hope you enjoy Martha's version of this story.

It should also be noted that the audio quality of the introduction to Martha's presentation is somewhat poor, but after the first two minutes, it should improve dramatically.

Finally, it should be noted that this presentation comes from the 2005 Northwest Sunstone Symposium held in Mali Benian's home.

Why don't you talk to him on the marketing director for signature books?

Anyway, I'd like to take a moment to do Marty and Marty and I first start talking about this project.

We didn't get along too well this week.

I'm very happy with you all.

Anyway, I'm pleased to say that Marty and I have come.

My way of introduction, Marty is a professor at the University of New Utah at the College of Architecture and Planning.
