so at some level i think the more we see women in power, the better it will be for young women.at the same time, i do say in my book -- and i have an early chapter called "six easy rules rules" -- i talk about the fact that you can win with and for women. and that is something i really believe. so i guess i would say if i were, you know, had been able to sit in be a room with margaret thatcher, say, who said she was not a feminist, i would have reminded her that femme knits -- feminists enabled her to be in the place where she was. i don't know if that was from mat call or not. and that she, like it or not, did spend a bit be of time on issues that women care about and it would behoove her to spend more. so i guess i want at all times to sort of find a way to capture the strength and the power and the voice that those women have and just to sort soft -- to sort of say to younger women you can have that voice, too, and when you have that voice, i hope you will speak out on behalf of women. yes, ma'am. >> thanks so much for being here today to, and i look forward to reading your b

women in general to sponsor women's issues. and he basically posit that some of it has to do with the idea that women, democratic women have a greater sense that their voters are women. so i wonder if thinking just about politicians being politicians, i women senators than pandering to women tragedy i don't know that they would consider it to be pandering to i think for the democratic women there is less conflict and policy priorities. so i think that many of them have policy priorities that relate to women's rights issues or social welfare issues. it's not that they're a total package but it's an important part of what they do. they automatically have a source of electoral support in women's organizations as the day, more central. and if you it is sort of the way campaign finance is going, and if you want to try to rely more on individual donors, right, individual donors donate for ideological reasons. if i'm the business, i donate to the person who is on the committee that has influence over what i do. so if i'm looking at ma

the women who rape. that they have a right to walk and to dress the way they want to, and it's really shifting, as kavita said, shifting the accountability of the rape from the victim. >> what are the discussions going on in fixes things, and in terms of creating solutions? >> we're trying to emphasize here that we really aren't interested in politicians from the government or opposition telling us how much they want rapists to be hanged. we are trying to tell them that we are interested in knowing how much money they plan to allocate for rape crisis centers in india, across the country, how much money they plan to allocate to ensure that we have more courts and judges in india so trials can be speedier rather than rape trials taking over a decade in some cases. and which want to know how much money they plan to reallocate for rape survivors of how to rebuild their lives. we would like people in public positions who make rape culture remarks, they really should face some kind of action. if they are polic

in 1942, when the women's army auxiliary corps was established black women fought to be included. partly because of her close relationship with eleanor roosevelt, african-american women were included. the government used a quota system to limit the numbers of black women. it was estimated that 10 percent of the u.s. population was black the time. the number of african-american women allowed was limited to 10% . some newspaper reporters referred to them as the ten percenters. as the first class of 439 female officer candid it's began to arrive at the training center in fort do more in iowa in july july 1942 the commanding officer issued his first directive. well all the colored curls move over on this side? this set the stage where the 39 african american women who had come from across the country. most of whom more college graduates. a podiatrist from new york, a school superintendent from alabama, a graduate of the new england conservatory of music. this first class of officer candid it's met with discrimination throughout their success returning. it started the first dead. the a

women. he talked about -- [applause] that they had strong opinions, and that men and that men(.ecl) and that men(.ecl)(.ecl) listened to them. so i thought it was a great beginning. knowing that those earliest women showed a spark that was different, that showed an independence and resilience. my first two books were about the american women who broke barriers in the different field. i was able to do the first woman who made the start at getting in to a field, whether it was journalism or altogether let -- atathletics or aviation or politics or education, and then i was able to interview the women who were still breaking barriers in the same fields. so as an example, in "american hero win." i wrote about margaret smith and running for the senate on her own and winning. i was able to interview madeline al bright, sandra day 0'connor, and condolezza rice who were braking barriers still in the statesmen and politics. after my first two books with my wonderful publisher, harper colins, they said

did these press conferences allow women journalists, newspaper women, that is what most of these women were, 1933-1945, when newspapers were still the name of the journalism game. and still newspapers where the thing. and period when washington d.c. and five newspapers, but these press conferences allow newspaperwomen to be admitted into the male culture of washington politics if only on a very marginal level. did these press conferences and eleanor roosevelt helped 350 of them for women reporters only while she was first lady. did they help eleanor enhance her own journalism career through not working with other women? a third question, to what extent did they facilitate opportunities for women to bond with each other and promotes an alternative journalistic culture to be male-dominated one that excluded them. then there is an overreaching question that i raised in the book and i would love to hear your answers to, after we get to the q&a, did the conferences help or hurt the women professionally who covered them? i will tell you the reasons people hurt women and some of the reasons p

he 10 percent that women have maternity leave beyond 12 weeks pr it effects women every year and the effect on health. i think you're all aware. specifically in the last 10 years there's been a number of studies that really describes the effect on health. flexible hours and job security and economy are 3 of the four employment conditions that directly effects ma terminal health. this doesn't effect paid leave but this is the gap that we're addressing optional textbook percent of our community has paid leave beyond 12 weeks were and finally the disposable effect on working families. the parental leave and flexible hours are dispotential to families that are well paid occupations. many of the women that are having children have less seniority. since this has been address many nurses have expressed their support. in my 13 years of practicing medicine i've seen many disparticipants in job flexibility. some of those patients that have visited my clinsz were in the 10 percent of - of women who do have parental he leave beyond 12y weeks but it's those companies that have the expanded leave

as american women. because as you heard in the interview the director says victim hood mentality don't advance women. >> i think it's inspiration tall, the film maker herself is also instar operational. there are deeper truths. every single time a woman takes a deep breath and tells a story of women like her, i believe that has radical power to advance society. that's what's happening with this film. it's just beautiful. >> you've been a member of the american women's movment your whole career and you worked it, the american women's movement was lot more open, in your face, in the '60s and '70s, bra burning. but are there parallels between our women's movement and their's? >> i believe there are. in fact it goes back to that truth of telling your story which is something that has happened with maybe some more controversial feminist from the past. there was also one, is that didn't take that confrontation tall approach just like today there are feminist who take a very controversial approach there are ma

advocates for women's issues. seeing a woman run a country. seeing them with margaret thatcher, even i'm saying that this is very important. so at some level i think that the more we see women in power, the better it will be for young women. and i do say in my book and i do have a chapter called six easy pools. and i talk about the fact that can win with and for women. and that is something that i really believe. so i would say that if i had been able to sit in a room with margaret thatcher, say who said she was not a feminist. i would have reminded her that feminists enabled her to be in the place where she was. and that like it or not, she did spend a bit of time on issues and help her spend more. so i guess that i one at all times sort of find a way to capture the strength and the power and the voice that those women have. just to say to the younger women in particular that you can have that voice as well. and when you have that come i hope you will speak out on behalf of of them. >> hello, my name is tammy pet

young women will contact them.you know you have a relationship started and now she's hanging out with this gang member. i encourage parents to regulate facebook. >> as a prosecutor your job is to make sure justice is upheld. as a person, does it get sad at some point when you see the faces of these young women and young boys sometimes when you have to throw the book at them? >> absolutely. it's not a job or something i pleasure in when i have to send someone to jail or prison. at the same time, there are some victims out there and i feel ike doing my job, these crimes are horrific. they terrorize neighborhoods. we have cases where young kids are trying to go to school or walk somewhere and they can't walk on certain streets. it's with a heavy heart sometimes i do what i do but i also think my job i'm helping the community. i'm taking care of victims. i would love for everyone to walk outside their door and feel safe. i think that we have seen more women and the ages of people getting younger and younger who are inv

the book is largely about white women, women of privilege and straight women and it's that way because that's who i am. i made the decision early on in writing the book that that for me was the only honest route to take. if i tried to include chapters about and this is what it's like to be poor, black, i would have had to write a very different book. so i decided to do what is honest to me and say this is the world that i've experienced and it's a very elite world. i mean i'm not struggling to feed my family thank goodness, but i think it's worth at least conveying these problems even from the elite if that's what most of us in this room are because i think what i've heard at least in the early sort of versions of this which has been very reassuring is that women who are struggling more, they feel more validated. even the women that are well figure and have had more opportunities are struggling, too but we are not any more perfect. we may have high year levels of education that we are not perfect. >> i'm curious about whether you think it is the goal of feminism shifting depending on w

women's facility, and to california institute for women. and -- >> exploded the population there? >> yes. and exploded the populations to around 175% capacity. between the two would be the average. that causes lock down. it causes shortage to coverage the population that is there. their educational classes sometimes it can shut down visiting many of these women come from los angeles area. they come from the san francisco area, so these families travel five and six hours. >> and the health care is different as well? >> yeah, the healthcare is deteriorated. already under 2006, they found the violation of the 8th amendment, brought in a federal receive ship. they take all these women who are pregnant, who are post par come, who have other chronic illnesses and you shifted them into another prison, and the response was toquet them all of their care until they can get re-evalwaited. >> i want a quick thought from you about women and how they are perceived. why is it so different from women then men? >> i'm not sure what the perception is. i know

realize there were few women in the senate up until 1990 there were only two women in the senate. so all of those male senators don't know what to do with women coming into the senate. and you have women coming in at the same time as you have a big shift in washington in terms of behavior in washington becoming more partisan and more polarizeed. so as women come into the senate, you're also in a much more partisan and polarized environment, and that's had a lot of effect. so in terms of utilizing their gender, they do emphasize it if it helps them to achieve their political goals. >> host: right. >> guest: and they de-emphasize it when they're concerned that it could hurt their political goals. so if we take the very obvious example of hillary clinton -- >> host: right, i love that example. you talk about her a lot. >> guest: one of the reasons is there has not been a senator from new york on armed services for a long time, was because she knew she was going to be running for president, and she needed to establish credentials. and she spent time talking to military officials, esta

that is so in powering for women. its -- some of it may seem straight forward but it does resonate in to articulate in a way that allows it to be intentional to have the confidence to make it work. >> the key for saying that. [applause] let me tell you a story related to what marcia has said it was very important to tell the story of how someone did it and what the practical steps were. marcia mentioned earlier there is a reception at the white house this evening for the leadership of civil-rights movement i was reflecting on that and listening to us now remembering the story of another woman that i interviewed from new mexico and she started off as a very typical neighborhood mom there was not a sign that the school crossing and organized her friends and it did something about that and they said ryan for the pta and she said i dunno how so she learned then was encouraged to run for office and became the county board member than a few years later she was invited to be a special assistant to a cabinet secretary salazar

>> people or women?eople in general, i think it was interesting what you said about, it is not enough to be angry. when you get to the post- revolution, women, they were very much involved. we don't talk much about that. most of the time you say men. i met women and we do not see them during the revolution. i think they do not want to be seen. the question is now, in libya with the discussion surrounding the cost of tuition, women tried -- the constitution, women tried to get empowered. it is extremely difficult. it is still difficult. it is a long process. this is what i am working on in libya. >> we have a comment on twitter that came to us saying -- as i see it, muslim women are more involved in demonstrations but still kept out politically. yusra ghannouchi, do you agree with that statement? >> absolutely not. i would like to focus on tunisia because that is where my experience is. it is true that women took part alongside men in the revolution. after the revolution they continue to take heart in all

up first, the vatican and women. a number of remarkable events surrounding the papacy took place this week. most recently, pope emeritus benedict xvi emerged from retirement to respond to criticism of his handling of the priest pedophilia scandalment he denied accusations that he covered up sexual abuse by priests. meanwhile, former father greg reynolds of australia became the first person excommunicated under the papacy of pope francis. he is an outspoken supper of women's ordination and gay marriage. then, there was a slew of publicity and positive reaction from catholics around the world last week to pope francis' remarks criticizing the church in his words he said the church should drop its obsession with devicive issues such as gay rights and abortion and contraception. there was less coverage of his reversal a day later. he lectured catholic object city tricks budget cuts evils of abortion saying every presentingty aborted bears the face of jesus. mercy was this a flip-flop or does pope francis truly want to st

in our data we can show that women are merely not suicidal. [laughter] if you do not have a senior person on your side, you would be stupid to take all kinds of risk. it's the fastest way to get fired. but you cannot do anything fabulous in this world without taking risk. turning to protÉges, because one of the great breakthroughs of this research was to show what kind of investment the younger talent needs to make. i mean, mentoring was always pretty passive, right? it was a friendly senior colleague perhaps who is giving you some guidance. but what did the mentee do? asap, they took notes, they smiled, they said thank you perhaps, right? we all made toward because it's good, but it's not going to get you the next job. because of sponsorship has to be earned, it's not some kind of gift. it's not some kind of entitlement. you have to demonstrate that you're worth taking a bet on, that you will come through. so how do you do it? again, the three things on the left are the important stuff. performance, huge. you are going to deliver. secondly, a

so it's like we're just, it's a women's rap. so we're just constantly sharing our experiences and what we hope our goals would be, and it's just empowering because you don't feel alone. i think a lot of people don't understand that how men deal with trauma and substance abuse issues are different from how women deal with trauma and substance abuse issues. being able to feel heard and understood, being able to believe that the cycle of violence is something that can be interrupted is something that restores hope to people. and i've talked to a number of women and said, "well, why couldn't you do this on your own?" and people will say, "you know, i had lost all sense of motivation. i had lost all belief that the future could be better than the past. it seemed that i was trapped in a kind of cycle where bad things repeated themselves over and over and over again." and sisters empowering sisters gives women a sense that the future can be different. my life was very unstable before i found recovery. now that i have recovery i have a
