The women at Notre Dame were far less conservative than she. The church was changing. The feminist movement was gaining speed. She heard a speaker who said:  “Men are the action makers, women are the receptacles.” This started her transformation and desire to make sure that women were treated as equals to men. She left the convent in her final year. Aggie’s goal is to reach daughters and granddaughters with her work. She talks with largegroups of women, urging them to get out the vote, to vote in legislators who will stop thedecline of access to abortion. At 85, Aggie is proud of her age and has no plans to stopthe work she loves.It’s women friends who will keep us going.Connect with Aggie:Website: https://www.aggiejordan.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aggie-jordan-ph-d-693b9538/Book: A Woman’s Voice Should Be Heard: My Journey from the Convent to the Battlefor Equality.
