2017 was rough – there, we’ve said it. But we’ve seen some incredible movements, such as the women’s empowerment movement, make meaningful strides. Male and female politicians are still subject to different standards, and the sexist view that women do not belong in politics took center stage in the recent presidential election. Women are criticized for being too emotional and unpredictable to hold public office, a double standard that we can’t tolerate any longer. Americans relentlessly demand change while stubbornly stuck in our ways. Since 1913, only 3 of the 22 congresspersons have been female in District 2. The three women make up 8 of the 105 years of service. We’re confident that Shireen will be a useful resource to better understand our current political landscape. We hope you join us for the event!
