Remember, Reflect, Recommit: Celebrating Women's Suffrage (Day 2)

Description

To recognize the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, the SNF Agora Institute will host a three-day virtual conference entitled "Remember, Reflect, Recommit: Celebrating Women's Suffrage" that will explore the multiple ways women have—historically and today—used voting, legislating, and other forms of civic engagement to shape our democracy. This conference is sponsored by Johns Hopkins University's Women's Suffrage Centennial Commemoration.

Day 2 panels:

• Women Working Across the Aisle (12–12:50 p.m. ET): Sen. Barbara Mikulski, Ambassador Constance Morella, and Maryland State Delegate Brooke Lierman will discuss the unique perspective women bring to leadership positions and how women working together may help to heal our current political divides.

• Women Working Across the Atlantic (2–2:50 p.m. ET): Ambassador Gina Abercrombie-Winstanley, Admiral Michelle Howard, and former State Department official Tamara Wittes share their experiences working to ensure U.S. safety and to foster democracy around the world and discuss why it's so important to include women in our country's efforts abroad. The panel will be moderated by SNF Agora Institute Senior Fellow Anne Applebaum.
