terrell will be part of the 1930 prayed in washington. she will pick it i think the only black woman along with her daughter fearless, they are the only black women participate in that action led by alice paul. terrell is that committed, and concurs with those tactics. while somebody like margaret murray washington is another leader, also from alabama, tuskegee, who really cautions black women against becoming two embroiled in radical suffrage politics. washington thinks it's risky personally, and it's risky politically. so while she is prepared to support voter education efforts among black women so that they will be prepared, if and when he 19th amendment is ratified, she's not prepared to recommend the women of the and asi w. participate and participate in radical suffrage politics. and that's the important difference among black women. >> to take another turn, there were communities that were majority black communities. is there any evidence that those communities that were majority black communities, that there was stronger voter par

there was mary church terrell, the educator, education activist, the first president of the national council of negro -- excuse me, national association of colored women, and suffragette par excellence in the early 20th century, someone very much part of this story of how black women get to the vote. ida b. wells, the journalist, social scientist, anti-suffragette activists and suffragette was also name-checked by kamala harris. there was maggie cog bethune of florida, who i've introduced. diane nash was on senator harris' list. the architect of the selma campaign and woman who worked untiringly and courageously through the philosophy of nonviolence to strategically win for black americans many of the civil rights victories that we associate with that era, including that of the voting rights act. fannie lou hamer from mississippi, whose grassroots organizing and unparalleled courage in the state of mississippi, brought her before news cameras, both still and moving, including in 1964 during that year's democratic national convention, when hamer decried that convention and those who w

like mary church terrell, she knows how to work remarkably effectively with men who had no intention i think often imz too times of linking arms with her, linking arms with the national council of negro women. dorothy height knew how to broker those kinds of relationships and most importantly she knew how to ensure african-american women would be able to know how to use all of their talents, all of their capacities, all of their gifts, all of their power in the interest of the collective. i think she was someone who never lost sight of that over a very long and distinguished career. so thank you sko much fo much f chance to introduce her to this conversation. >> taking that sort of strain of people who we don't know or didn't know, this symposium has been very intentional of trying to bring the story of women's voices in the period of women's suffrage and inactivity but one woman writes she's a 60-year-old white woman who grew up in the new york city public schools and she the good this beautiful pin from the archives that said vote for women 1920 and she gave it to her 22-year-old d

the dow had its biggest rally in five months after pfizer's vaccine announcement cnbc's meg terrell talked to pfizer's ceo and, meg, he's calling all of this a game-changer. >> yeah, shep. he's not the only one calling it that dr. anthony fauci saying today the results were, quote, absolutely striking, just extraordinary. and it's incredible to put into perspective how quickly this vaccine and others have been developed. it was only new year's eve 2019 that the world health organization was first alerted to a mysterious viral pneumonia circulating in wuhan, china. two weeks later the genetic sequence was shared publicly and that kick started one of the great medical races the world has ever seen. pfizer partnered with biontech and it is now 90% effective. before this the fastest a vaccine was developed is four years and that was for mumps in 19 ske 1967 pfizer needs to complete its follow-up and file with the fda. we should see more details on the vaccine, does it protect against severe disease does it work as well for the elderly? even once it reaches the market, there will be questions l

and with more on that, we bring in meg terrell for us. >> this is causing quite a stir in the covid testing community today, i can tell you. what i am hearing is that musk's experience is not typical and is not how you are supposed to use these tests. first of all, there are a lot of unknowns these antigen tests and specifically the one that he is probably talking about is designed to be used within five days of symptom onset. he noted that he has had cold symptoms for a few days, but there are a lot of things we don't know about the circumstances under which he was tested but let's take a look at the kinds of tests that are available out there on the market, because i know a lot of people have questions about what they could be getting. and really, when you're thinking about testing for current infection, those are the molecular pcr tests, those are really considered the gold standard, because they're very accurate and then there are antigen tests, which are often things like, you hear elon musk talking about there. antibody tests are a different animal they test for past infection, so not

fight off covid-19 but a complicated manufacturing process will be a limited factor for supply meg terrelnow with more on that front. meg, good morning. it's great to see you. >> it's good to see you, becky regeneron started working on this drug way back in january and essentially it's a combination of two different antibodies, one they engineered in mice and one they isolated from people who survived covid-19 and the reason it takes so long to produce, once they start manufacturing, it's about a 3 to 4-month process is they're grown in living cells. the cells come from chinese hamster ovaries. these are common cells used to grow bio tech drugs and grown up in these series of bio reactors that start in really small ones like soda cans and get ever larger over a period of four to six weeks. once they get to the big vat which really starts to look like a brewery where you make beer baa lot cleaner, they start to churn out these antibodies from that process they go into quality control which takes another three to four weeks and shipped to another location to go through fill and finish so al
