She was also the first Japanese American woman to practice law in her home State of Hawaii. In 1965, Patsy made history and started her long career in politics. Her lifelong experience with racism and gender bias drove her to create legislation that addressed unfairness and inequities.  She, along with Rep. Edith Green, spearheaded the passage of the Title IX Education Amendment of 1972. This landmark piece of legislation transformed women’s opportunities in higher education and sports. In 2002, this act was renamed the Patsy T. Mink Equal Opportunity in Education Act. In Patsy’s words, “What you endure is who you are. And if you just accept and do nothing, then life goes on. But if you see it as a way for change, life doesn’t have to be this unfair; it can be better. Maybe not for me, I can’t change the past. But I can certainly help somebody else in the future so they don’t have to go through what I did.”Sources1-27-2022, PBS Hawaii Presents, Patsy Mink: Ahead of the Majority – A Film by Kimberly Bassford, 2008https://youtu.be/k8icOtKYmxsUCI Podcast: Patsy Mink’s role in Title IX passagehttps://news.uci.edu/2022/06/22/uci-podcast-patsy-minks-role-in-title-ix-passage/United States House of Representatives Archives – Patsy Takemoto Mink, 1927-2002https://history.house.gov/People/detail/18329Alexander, Kerri Lee. “Patsy Mink.” National Women’s History Museum, 2019.
