The Unspoken Global Crisis: Women's Rights at Stake
What if the most pervasive human rights violation isn't happening in distant war zones but right before our eyes? In "A Call to Action," Jimmy Carter confronts an uncomfortable truth: the systematic abuse and discrimination against women and girls across every continent and culture. Growing up in rural Georgia during the 1930s, Carter witnessed contradictions that shaped his understanding of gender equality. His mother worked as a nurse while his father insisted on respectful treatment of the Black women who helped in their home. His childhood heroine was Rachel Clark, an African American woman with "an aura like a queen" who taught him fishing, nature, and spiritual values. Yet as he matured, Carter observed how his community interpreted religious texts to justify discrimination and maintain different standards for men and women. These formative experiences planted seeds for his later human rights advocacy, showing how personal awakening often precedes social change.
