Abstract	A history of the status of women in Hawaii, particularly, and the United States, in general, is documented in this publication. Two case studies of women encountering employment discrimination in Hawaii because of their sex and their actions to obtain equal employment conditions are summarized. Present employment conditions in Hawaii are followed by a section on women of old Hawaii. The history of the women's movement in the United States is discussed in terms of individual rights, religion, education, and employment. The final sections discuss combating sex discrimination by the political activities of voting, party participation, holding office, and uniting diverse groups in supporting the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment.
