a question to rebecca. rebecca, who could you point as your role model? and what did you learn from that role model? what do we need to learn from the role model to move forward? get a female president in the white house? get more females in the senate? and just have a tide turnover? we have to do something together. >> did you all hear the question? from the suffrage movement, i kind of pick and choose the best aspects. alice paul was incredibly savvy, impressive, and bold. she also really punted badly on some race issues. when the delta sigma theta university from howard wanted to march in the parade, she told them they had to march in the back. they didn't. ida bee wells was also told she had to march in a segregated section, but she just went in with the illinois delegation. you want your heroes to be perfect, and they are super not. i would take her boldness. she is someone i would admire more than i would like. i don't know that i would want to have dinner with her. she was terrifying and really serious. cherrie catman was born with grassroots organ

so, i proudly present rebecca boggs roberts. [applause] ms. roberts: as both mom and speaker pelosi mentioned, we're lindy boggse by the in the only room in the capitol named after a woman. my grandmother was born in 1916 before women won the right to vote, and yet became member of congress, an ambassador, a formidable force in american politics. this history is really recent. it is important to know -- people keep saying, women's history is a role model for girls, ok, that's fine, but the main reason to know it is because if you do not learn about women's history, you are getting history wrong. [applause] ms. roberts: and the reason to know about this movement in women's history is that they won. they were incredibly successful activists. they changed the world, and they did it entirely by women and for women. so if you all want to change the world, and i really hope you all do, then there are worse role models than the suffragists. they were incredibly successful. so learn the history, vote, and then go out and change the world. thank you.
