Discussion on Women's Liberation Origins

He told me was that, um,

he brought-- We, we was at the house one night and, uh,

we were talk, we were talking, and he started laughing.

He said, "Aaron, what do you think women's liberation

was about?"

And, uh, I said, I, I had pretty conventional thinking about

it at

that point. I said, "I think it's about women having the right

to work, getting

equal pay with men, just like they want the right to vote,"

you know?

And he started to laugh and said, "You're an idiot."

And I said, "Why am I an idiot?" He said, "You want me-- Let me tell you what that

was about. We, the Rockefellers, funded that.

We funded women's lib, you know? And we're the ones who got all over the

newspapers and television, the Rockefeller Foundation."

He says, "And you wanna know why?" He says,

"There were two primary reasons,

and they were, one reason was we couldn't tax half the

population before women's lib, and the second reason

was now we get the kids in school at an early age.

We can indoctrinate the kids how to think, which it breaks up their family.

The, the k-kids start looking at the state as

the family, as the

school, as the officials, as their family, not as the parents

teaching them."

And so those are the two primar- primary reasons for women's lib, which,

which I

thought up to that point was a noble thing, you know.

When I saw their intentions behind it, where they were coming from when they

created it, the thought of it, I saw, I saw the evil behind

what I thought was a noble venture.
