The National Organization for Women was started in 1966 by Betty Friedan to help equal rights for women. NOW had its cause in the antiwar movements of the early 1960s. In both of these, women felt forgotten by the men who were responsible for the organizations like the SNCC. NOW’s goals included equality in employment, political and social equality, and the change of the equal rights amendment. The Roe v. wade was started in a Texas court for pregnant women in March 1970 by Sarah Weddington. This started on behalf of Norma McCorvey who was a young single pregnant women living in Texas. Because of this Betty Friedan wrote a book which explained how women were being denied equality with men.
