Despite what has been written Spencer was a Democrat - he was not the conservative he has often been painted as .
I think a lot has been writtten about the 1947 speech but I had not actually listened to the speech until the last couple of weeks . An amazing speech .
So why did Katharine not get further involved in politics after that speech . Its interesting because Kit Hepburn was definitely a political animal . I suspect Katharine might have been too much of a individualist to get involved in political parties and it was something that just didn't interest her .

I have to agree with you. I think she had her own strong opinions about several issues but didn't feel the need to be her mother. Doing things like that speech were probably just issues she felt she could support by using her celebrity... not that there weren't a lot of other things she could have rallied for because of her status
