Breaking Barriers
We often think the days when women had to prove themselves in male-dominated careers are over. In fields like engineering, medicine, and law, we've made great strides toward equality—though there's still a long way to go. Even today, retrogressive forces try to prove gender differences prevent women from certain jobs, like piloting airplanes. Almost every industry reports gender salary gaps in both technical and non-technical professions.
Empowering Lessons
Women today can overcome these obstacles by understanding the past. Books like this, showcasing real struggles, are crucial for young women to remember and learn from history.
Meeting Winnie LoPinto
When I first met Winnie, the author of *Go Home Little Fifinella*, I had no idea she was a pioneer woman pilot. As a young woman engineer in the 70s, struggling in a male-dominated career, her story inspired me.
Living quietly with her dogs and grand-nephews, her book was gathering dust in the basement. It took interviewing Winnie and other LoPinto women to uncover that these 40s pioneers sparked the women's movement of my generation.
Pioneers of Independence
During the war, these women held "men's" jobs, tasted independence, and contributed significantly to the war effort. Returning to unequal roles made them angry, fueling the women's movement in the 70s.
Fuel for Change
Their anger and determination passed on, driving the fight for equality. This book is a testament to their struggles and a reminder of the work still needed to achieve gender equity.
