Seven women who changed the world.

Check out this wonderful video clip on origins and founders of La Leche League, which celebrated its 50th anniversary this month.  It's a great illustration of how far we've come, as well as the power of mothers organized around a cause.

Don't miss the segment with the incomparable Grace Kelly addressing a La Leche League conference, with a chorus of babbling babies in the background.

This seems like the perfect occasion for the Margaret Mead quote:  "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.  Indeed, it is the only thing thing that ever has."

Thanks to Stephanie at Adventures in Babywearing for the heads up about this video!
