Patsy Matsu Takemoto Mink~ Beads on a String Celebrates Women #BeadsOnaString #diversity

PATSY MATSU TAKEMOTO MINK (Japanese: 竹本まつ, December 6, 1927--September 28, 2002). Mink, an American politician from the U.S. state of Hawaii was born on the island of Maui. There she was raised by her parents, second generation Japanese Americans or Nisei. Patsy T. Mink was the first non-white woman to serve in Congress. She is celebrated as one of the most important civil rights leaders, especially for writing the Title IX Amendment which today preserves the rights of all genders in education.

Mink served in the U.S. House of Representatives for a total of 12 terms, representing Hawaii's first and second congressional districts. While in Congress she was noted for authoring the Title IX Amendment of the Higher Education Act. Mink won her last election after her death in 2002.

Mink was the first woman of color and the first Asian American woman elected to Congress. She was also the first woman elected to Congress from the state of Hawaii, and became the first Asian American to seek the presidential nomination of the Democratic Party in the 1972 election, where she stood in the Oregon primary as an anti-war candidate.

In recognition of her contributions towards equal rights in the country, Congress named the Title IX Amendment of the Higher Education Act the "Patsy T. Mink Equal Opportunity in Education Act".
