Humanitarian, pacifist,
and
tireless advocate for social reform, Jeannette Rankin
was the first woman elected to U.S. Congress, and
the only member of Congress to vote against U.S. entry
into both world wars. Hear about her journey from
grass roots suffragist to being the first woman to
participate in United State government. Hear in her own
words her views on equality and government
reform - words that ring true today.
This is a
45 minute - 1 hour program presented in first person
with time for questions and discussion.
