AAUW MEMBERS SUPPORT GRACIELA CHICHILNISKY

As the first week of court closes in the trial of Graciela Chichilnisky v. Columbia I am proud to say that many AAUW members from various branches answered the call of the AAUW NYS LAF VP to attend the trial. Members from Manhattan, Weschester, Islip and New Jersey spent time in court to show their support for our LAF Supported Litigant.

Examinations and evidence will continue into next week and we have several members attending on those court days. Graciela has been involved in this case for years, taking a toll on her family life, career and her future. We as AAUW members can give our time over the next t weekto be present at the trial and show the court and Graciela that we support her in this law suit.

Updates will continue to be posted by me during the next week as we "fight the good fight" for women and girls because......EQUITY IS STILL AN ISSUE.

Look for me in court and wear your AAUW LAF stickers to show all that AAUW is present and concerned.
