Summary: | Women are holding signs that read "ERA Is Good for Families / Aunts / Cousins / Brothers / Sisters / Mothers / Fathers" and "We Love Our Families Too / Birmingham NOW." Speakers at the rally are visible in the background. In front of them are an American flag and a banner that says, "God Sets the Solitary in Families" (a quote from Psalm 68:6). The event was sponsored by the Eagle Forum, an organization opposed the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). This photograph was published with the article "Pro-family backers rally in city park" in the Birmingham News on November 20, 1977, accompanied by the following caption: "Members of NOW demonstrate at pro-family rally . . . Proclaiming their love for family as well."
