Being Female In America
If 51% of America's population is female, then why are women so under-represented in our politics at every level? Why do women still get a fraction of pay for the same work when standing side-by-side with men at a job? Why are so few women in top leadership positions in business and other organizations?
Please join us for an interactive discussion about what it means to be a female in America today.
