July 19 Today is the feast day of Saint Justa and Rufina, Saint Arsenius, Saint Symmachus, Saint Ambrose Autpert, Saint Macrina the Younger, and Saint William John Plessington. *** Vikki
Carr, nee Florencia Bisenta deCasilla, who is best remembered for
her incredibly unliberated "It Must Be Him," turns 61 today
(1941, El Paso). Ironically enough, July 19th is also the birthday
of the organized women's rights movement. On that date in 1848, Lucretia
Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton called the Women's Rights Convention
at Seneca Falls, New York. |
