Mothers are drivers of social change
Stephen Crouch Guest columnist
Mother’s Day is traditionally a holiday where mothers are shown gratitude for their roles as caretakers, nurturers and sources of wisdom. Traditionally, these maternal roles are thought of to be passive and confined to the home. But history shows us that mothers have played an outsized role in social change, particularly in Highland County.
The city of Hillsboro often takes pride in two historical figures: the “Marching Mothers,” who protested school segregation in the 1950s, and Eliza Jane Thompson (aka “Mother Thompson”), who crusaded for temperance in the 1870s. In Highland County, both desegregation and temperance were led by mothers who were animated by a concern for the welfare of their families.
