Phyllis Schlafly passed away three years ago yesterday. Born August 24, 1924 – Died September 5, 2016.
She worked her way through college testing machine guns during World War II. She and her husband had six children, after which she earned a law degree. She ran for the U.S. Congress, then became active in protecting the traditional American family. She founded the Eagle Forum while resisting the Leftists' Equal Rights Amendment and was one of the first champions in the pro-life movement.
In her final years, she was influential in getting Donald Trump elected. More about that in this article from Illinois Review:
