Civil rights evolve through generations

My mother was a child of the Depression, and passed that on to me. I was a child of the women's liberation movement, and I passed that on to my daughters. My daughters are the children of gender and racial equality rights, and they are passing that on to their daughters. My granddaughters, hopefully, will mature in an environment where the past is resolved and they no longer can conceive of a time where these divisions even existed. I hope to be around to know their children's world.
