In celebration of Women's History Month, join Carolyn Crouch, founder of Washington Walks, for an inspiring look at the women who achieved historic “firsts” in the U.S. Congress. Despite numerous obstacles, these trailblazers paved the way for future generations of female leaders. Explore the remarkable stories of women such as Jeanette Rankin, the first woman elected to Congress; Margaret Chase Smith, the first woman considered for the presidency at a national convention; Patsy Takemoto Mink, co-author of Title IX legislation; and Shirley Chisholm, the first Black woman elected to Congress. This session offers a unique perspective on the courage and conviction required to break through barriers and change the course of history.
