A finely tuned sense of outrage was one of the marvelous gifts of Maggie
Kuhn, founder of the Gray Panthers.  Outraged because of her forced
retirement at age 65 from her post, in the Presbyterian Church, no less
ageist than other segments of our society, she recounted stages of
feeling abandoned, hurt and humiliated, then mad as hell.  Mad enough
to marshall others like herself to protest!  She was 89 when she died,
last April, and she leaves a nice example to follow.  pgthompson@ualr.edu.
