Crunchy Con - Rod Dreher - Edwina Froehlich, hero

The founder of La Leche League died Sunday: "Froehlich co-founded La Leche League with a group of neighborhood women in Franklin Park during the late 1950s, teaching other mothers how to nurse their infants at a time when doctors promoted formula and breastfeeding rates were reportedly near 20 percent." Interesting that formula feeding flourished about the same time as urban renewal.
