for both women men and women there is a drop off. if you live in a place with lots of laws you will not see much of a turnout. but the drop off as i hope you can see is even greater for women than it is for men. these were brand-new voters trying to learn the ropes things that discouraged voting or even more likely to discourage women's voting. we can see something similar for competition. here purple is democratic one party places, so the south. gold, republican places most of the north and the west, and the few competitive examples that we have, again that same pattern across the men and women, but it bigger impact for women of the sorts of laws. i will stop and make another point. i want you to be watching throughout as i'm showing you lots and lots of graphs, that while there are always the gender differences, the patterns are still the same. it turns out that men and women are both rational, reasonable human beings who pay some attention to politics and have used on the sorts of things, and so given the resistance, the generatio

if we think of women voters and politicians think of women voters as soccer moms -- white women who live in the suburbs and drive minivans, they will craft their appeals, they will design public policy to appeal to what they have in mind as a woman voter. that white married women in the suburbs are not actually a very large proportion of the electorate. they become less so over time. we know aboutnk women voters and what do we actually know? i will start with the very first -- the twitter hot takes a about women in the 1920's. the very first conventional wisdom about women voters was this idea that women suffrage had been a failure. these are headlines from 1923 and 1924. this might be the only talk you see this year where one of the headlines is from good housekeeping as well as "the "harpers" post," magazine, etc.. this was something scholars tended to believe as well. for reasons i can talk more about, we actually have very, about womendata voters immediately after suffrage. as you are probably aware, citizens do not placed pink and blue ballots into ballot boxes, and so from the offi

about the contributions of men and women, and we see men and women challenging it, we see women increasingly asserting the idea and the identity of a farmer, that women maybe are maybe women on your farm are similar, women increasingly saying i am not a farm wife i am a former. as well as my hunt as well as my husband. so women increasingly pushing that identity. trying to close the gap. we are going to see examples of where we are creating networks, and organizations to help them be successful, to get the training and the skills they need to be successful, and i think all of us it's helping us to increasingly see farm women. think you and we will see you on thursday.

women in the nation. since 1975, san francisco has been the home of the strongest commission on the status of women in the nation. it's my pleasure to welcome you to the annual women's history month celebration. this year we celebrate the national theme of valiant women of the vote. we honor the brave women who fought for suffrage rights for women and those who continue to fight for the voting rights of others. i'm very pleased to say we're joined by many members of the family. if you could hold your applause, we'll give them a big applause after. carmen chu, board of supervisors norman yee, catherine stephanie, sandra lee fewer, and fire chief nicholson, and police chief william scott. so let's give them a big round of applause for showing up today. [applause] >> i also like to recognize women's commissioner sophia and julie from the commission on the status of women. [applause] >> also joining us is president linda calhoun, and lisa of the friends on the commission of the status of women. [applause] >>

they are not just women commissioners from the commission on the status of women, they are women commissionersity that has joined us here today to celebrate women's history month in san francisco. we know that there are still a number of inequalities that still exist for women. in fact, as a woman mayor, i still believe it or not, experience some of those when i'm even in meetings, even today, dealing with the challenges of the city. questions that i get asked i know if i was not a woman, i would never get asked. the fact is that we made a tremendous number of gains. i look around and i look at the fact that so many of you serve in so many capacities. even think of the history of our police department and we see now deputy chief and the other leading women who are basically running the police department in san francisco. [cheering and applause] >> we see members of our board of supervisors, our fire chief, jeanine nicholson and so many other incredible leaders who continue to lead this city as the director of departments, commissioners, president of the commissions, and we also know that it sh

are very capable women in the. government maybe hear them more so that we can eradicate peace under me which is violence against women so let me just bring in just a little bite from present lopressor over door so that out general audience can hear what he thinks about this idea of gender based violence in mexico so this was for me the 17th let's have a listen. mexican society has fallen into decline a progressive dark relation that has to do with the neo liberal models this isn't solved just with police or with presence or with threats of a heavy hand we have to address the background here that there be material well being and well being of a soldier. on our live you tube chat people are talking about the idea of impunity in mexico so he samarian he says i am mexican and the real problem is the lack of justice not only in the area femicide but him mexico we have 90 percent of impunity in every single felony 100 go ahead yes i mean i do completely agree it should not only the impunity unfamous saved for me actually

it's not true men just are better salespersons and can present themselves better than women or women are often way to awful but that's not all smarter rock thinks another reason why women have such a disadvantage in the tech industry lies in our past take as much as a topic for women as it is for men but i think that has to do maybe it with upbringing and how we were educated technical topics i'm more of a male domain than a female domain. the result women have to fight harder for venture capital for their startups and they granted less take made us take deals in 2018 for example main run startups the client billions in investments while female run startups. didn't get a fraction of that what causes such a big investment. ideas researchers found. treated differently even when they pitch. studies show when pitching their new ideas to investors prospective female founders are often treated differently than their male counterparts gender stereotypes are partly to blame for that behavioral scientists don accounts can demonstrate this simply based on the questions investors ask for. resea

you had dealers go out and train women, educate women so women had to learn how to operate machinery, attach, how to fix the equipment and, of course, do different farm work if they weren't familiar with it. so, again, a nice example. we often assume a lot about what we think men and women can do, should do, and often we continue to think that until something disrupts their thinking, and i think these historical examples about what women did in world war i and world war ii, which we know they're doing all the time within the family farm. it's just that the rest of society often doesn't know it. because of how we talk about farm families and men and women. so how many of these ideals, beliefs, the stereotypes challenge. so just to conclude, so what we're trying to do today is agrarian ideology which has been with us, which jefferson was a powerful proponent of, played a critical role in shaping how we as a society think about family farms. how we as a society think about men and women on the farms. how we identify who's a real farmer and implicit in there, who's not a real farmer? and

groups of women. right? for example, the women we'll be talking about today in the student non-violent coordinating committee, black women's experiences in activism is not going to be the same as white women's experiences. and their goals are not necessarily going to be the same. women in the workforce, for example. equal pay for equal work. i mean, on its head, that sounds like it would apply to all women. but the issue is that despite the fact that women of color and white women might both be fighting for equal pay for equal work, it ignores the fact that women of color black women especially made less than their white female counterparts. so there's a race issue along with the gender issue that is not affecting white women's activism. white women are fighting for things like contraception and birth control. we're going to see a series of landmark supreme court cases through the '60s and '70s which gave married and unmarried women the right to use birth control. we have griswold versus connecticut i

professor amira rose davis examines the history of african-american women in sports including women who played , baseball in the negro leagues in the 1950's, and women who participated in various olympics arts. this interview was recorded at african-american historical meeting. >> she is working on it talk titled "can't eat a medal, the lives and levels of that woman ."hlete in the age of jim crow thanks for joining us on american history tv. >> thanks for having me. host: them me begin with you walk, accepted to be published in about a year. you learned so far? guest: so many things. i started the project asking, is there a long history of black women in sports? i found more than i expected to find quite frankly. there wasn't any archive labeled , this is the history of black sports."so i had to piece it together. i got started by finding three women who actually played baseball in the negro leagues in the 1950's. it was a remarkable story. they played with the men. one of the things that stuck out to me about that story was that the owner who had brought in these black women to play w

deputy directors of museums or women or curatorial staff that are 85 percent women and women and women of color are the most represented aspect of their permanent collection it's because of statement because there are a lot of white women in museums that believe that. you know what is interesting is that she's an anchor woman who i'm sure in the history of news she is standing on the shoulders of those before her believe had to fight through news to get to that position so it's kind of ironic to me as she's making that statement because at the end you know regardless of your color the challenge is intense but as you know to me you know sometimes i feel like it is women also the drag us down you know i mean and this is why i think you know that more women need to be supportive as well and to understand especially i don't know for me in my position as an artist you know there are many challenges that i have to encounter but at the same time what i see is that you know everybody needs to be educated especially when you look at the american market which a lot of the times and you know i ha

women of color.ou have extraordinary women born into slavery, fighting against slavery, and forcibly joining, saying, these are our rights too. can you imagine how powerful it was for african-american women to get the vote? the great thing for me and all of us at the museum, nothing is preordained. it is all of the choices we make and it is those men who walked into their state houses and chose to vote for the 19th amendment. >> which states lead the way in that process? --led the way in that process, during the ratification process? >> it varied. the big states were in favor of it. a lot of it became, if women got the vote and could vote in the 1920 election, became part of the chess game for that, -- chess game for that, there were already women and men who were used to having women vote. the big states who wanted to swing the election of 2020 to the republicans were among the most ardent supporters. >> you talked about the declaration of sentiments earlier and we showed viewers a picture of that t

status of women. [applause] >> also joining us is president linda calhoun, and lisa of the friends on the commission of the status of women. [applause] >> and i just want to thank my associate director carol for her exceptional support for today's event. we are also joined by many women department heads, raise your hand if you're a woman department head. [cheering and applause] >>, as well as many women leaders serving on our commissions and boards. can we have a wave from our women's commission and board members. [applause] >> so we mark 100 years since the passage of the 19th amendment. it's important to remember that as the sixth state to ratify the 19th amendment, california has played a major role in the suffrage movement. newly uncovered historical sources put together by the neighborhood history project indicates that san francisco was a site of the first ever suffrage march in 1908. over 100 years ago, suffrage leaders picketed the white house, went to jail, endured intense personal suffering

it was a victory for women's rights but not for all women.or perspective, i sat down with three historians, ann gordon, the pre-eminent scholar on the women's suffrage movement and the editor of the elizabeth cady stanton and susan b anthony papers at rutgers university, marcia chatelain, an associate professor of history and african american studies at georgetown university, and maggie blackhawk, a law professor at the university of pennsylvania and a member of the ojibwe tribe . talk to me about the long very long fight for women who were trying to get to write to vote and -- the right to vote and who were some of them the boldface names if you will who were leading this charge? ann gordon: well the the central people from the early stages of the movement to change the law were elizabeth cady stanton, susan b anthony, lucy stone. and then you really spread out very fast because it's a movement that spread very fast. and it only was a long time in coming because men wouldn't say yes. the decisions were always going to be made by men who had

like, women of, like women of color and women who are white, their hair has to be a certain way, and it is very much like the men's hair has to be very put back, where women couldn't have their hair down. or even with women of color, they can't have like it in braids. they can't do that, even if it's short. they can't have it in that way because they can't express themselves. it has to be in a very tight bun. if you go to a professional job, a woman has to either wear a pencil skirt or slacks. but before, it only was skirt to show their femininity. but it's also a double-edged sword, if you think about it, because if a woman shows too much or too little, they're considered a prude and if they're showing too much, they're considered a slut, so i think it's a double-edged sword on what your appearance is, but i think men controlled that completely. >> so, how do you think the women in sncc feel? or do you think they were impacted by this sort of double standard by the men that they're working alongside? >> i think the patriarchal norms that come, that are set up in society for women is

working class women, immigrant women, women of color, unmarried women that have always worked. right? which women are we talking about when we say women began to work during world war ii? >> middle class white women. >> middle class white women. right? we are talking about middle class white women. this expansion into this area that people didn't work before. right? then a second group tied in there is mothers. right? more mothers are going to work in world war ii than worked before. right? so it's a shift from working class women, immigrant women, women of color working, right, to that expansion of middle class white women, right? so that's what we see portrayed in these posters. right? look at these women. right? first of all, their teeth are perfect, right, which did not happen in the 1940s. they have their eyebrows just right, hair just right. right? they are beautiful. right? this is not what most people ever look like let alone in the '40s. right? right? this idea of who the target is. right? who is the target for the working? because this is the group that we have in exc

we all know women who are leaders and women who are collegial and women who are loners and men who are exactly the same. because that becomes a belief when you see a woman who's collegial or you see a man who is a leader even when you see it in yourself you immediately start to notice that when you discard all the others. it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy what we expect to see becomes what we do become in many ways. >> i noted when you said that in the book that women do have learned behaviors to succeed in many ways i don't know many of us a better choice but to be legal. when we are not that's really a problem. >> of course it's a learned behavior. shirley tolman, the former president of princeton, a microbiologist, told me that when she was younger and a scientist, she used to close her eyes and tried to imagine a scientist and when she was able to picture a man as often as she could picture a woman she knew she was okay. i told that story to another woman scientist who was interviewing later and she said that's amazing because when i close my eyes i can't even picture myself. i

the women. right? the women. and so you know, a lot of the women are married, we talked about there are all sorts of, you know, quick weddings going on, and there are people who have been married for a while, as well. and this idea of how do you get by, right, if you're a household with a husband and a wife, in this time period, you know, it's a partnership, and each has their role, and they're much more defined roles in world war ii than they are say today. so this idea of how are you going to do both your job as the wife, and often the mother, and the job of the husband? how do you do this? so this is a very popular book, this came out in 1942 "so your husband's gone to war" and this idea of what do you do? how do you get through it? and you can see from the cover here. tackling male chores. because chores were defined by a male and female, who is going to do which job. and any single woman, any widow, any woman like that, does everything, right? you guys, if you live on your own, you do your own thing. you put

withonflated white women all women, effectively erasing african-american women from view. she restated this argument more explicitly and in a more overtly racist way. thattated that she sought "the women of virtue, wealth and " were to be made the subjects of every degree to type of manhood. we unfold the new banner to the breeze and unconditional in franchise meant for women of the republic. menuggesting that black were vicious, a and degraded, she excused their fitness -- their rights over the rights of educated white women. assertion was clearly designed to resonate with the deepest fears of democrats, stanton hoped to convert to the cause of white women's voting rights. she argued that black man's ignorance rendered their enfranchisement difference to the physical safety of the nation. stanton position white women as the solution in this potential hazard. in january of 1868 she argued that the only safety for the nation rate in the ability of its voters, to trust the lowest strata to legislate on the political, moral and social interest of the nation's suicidal to our

women in challenging the stereotypes about appropriate roles for women. in world war ii, the tractorette s, this was an initiative that international harvester was centrally involved in, the equipment dealer. this was an effort, again you had men going off to war, who was going to produce the food? how can we sustain the farm? so we needed more women to be engaged in farm work. there was a whole program, there are beautiful pictures of outdoor classrooms, you had dealers go out and train women and educate women, they had to learn how to operate machinery, attach implements, how to fix the equipment and do different farm work if they were not familiar with it. again, a nice example. we often assume a lot about what we think men and women can do and should do, and often we continue to think that until something disrupts our thinking, and i think these historical examples about what women did in world war i and world war ii, which we know they are doing all the time within the family farm, it's just that the rest of society often doesn't know it because of h

for women. so in the final decision the court -- they spoke of a number of different precedents including griswold versus connecticut which was created 10 times in the final roe decision and i'm quoted from the decision of roe v. wade. the right of the individual married or single to be free from unwarranted government intrusion into matters so fundamentally affecting a person as the decision whether to bear or beget a child. and of course they ultimately conclude, and i quote, that right necessarily includes the right of a woman to decide whether or not to terminate her pregnancy. in terms of a legal matter, all these ethical debates we have about abortion today, you all saw of course the protests that were out on polk place a couple weeks ago? how many of you saw those? obviously there's a lot of conversations happening out there. they're using a certain sort of tactic. but legally it's not about morality or religion. it's just not. there's a question that individuals certainly have to deal wi

our women do not want to go different to compete. lo and behold, a lot of women did. it was not just ethnic immigrants or lower-class women, but it was upper-class women who .layed tennis or wanted to swim the president of the aau said, the women have found the games. we cannot control it. we only can control them. two years later, you see women's athletic events being added to the stateside competition and into the olympic games by 1928. >> based on what you were talking about earlier, the idea of a negro league, was that a good thing or a bad thing from your perspective? hard to say ifs it was good or bad. it was what it was. it was a time of jim crow when we had state sanctioned violence and rampant segregation against -- around the country. black businesses, black wall street, banks, schools, everything out of born -- everything born out of segregation was born out of necessity. we are going to provide for ourselves since you -- since we are like out of your l. .ague -- your league the games became a place to congregate, to show off your finest furs, to see role m

but lo and behold a lot of women did. it wasn't just ethnic immigrants, lower class women. they were upper-class women who played tennis or swam. famously the president of the a.u. said the women have found the games. we cannot control it. we cannot bar them anymore. we only can control them. and so two years later, you see women's athletic events being added to the state side competitions, the a.u. competitions, and then into the olympics games in earnest by 1928. >> when you were talking about earlier, professor, the idea of a negro league, was that a good thing or a bad thing from your perspective? >> yeah, well, i mean, i think that it's hard to say if it was good or bad. it's just what it was. it was a time of jim crow where there were state sanctioned violence. and black ball players had no other choice. the negro leagues like colleges and black businesses, wall street, banks, schools, everything borne out of segregation was borne out of necessity. a community who said, we'll provide for ourselves since we're locked out of your leagues. they were a major source of com

for women. we talked about this in the 1960's, after the midterms. women's domestic roles, you remember the kitchen debate. remember mr. nixon and nikita khrushchev. what is up with women in the kitchen? >> talking about how in america, the woman's place was in the kitchen and it described the identity in the household. >> it also focused on how in america women are able to offer children a safe place. a monumental take care of them to manage broader parts of their lives and that they really don't have a broader role in society besides rearing those children in the kitchen, there are real consequences here, it's not just a modern inconvenience oh shots i can't get a law school because i have to have a baby. it is real discrimination that limits women's freedom and affects the outcomes and potential of their lives. in 1960 a credit card company refused to give a woman a credit card simply because she was a woman. you have a credit card in your pocket today, not always the case. women could not sa

the unc women's center or the department of women's studies opening in 1976. all over the country, you get women's studies departments that open in the late 1960s to the early 19 sfnts. they also protest and call for what is known as the equal rights amendment. so the late 1960s, women's rights activists do gain some ground here in terms of adding a new amendment to the constitution that deals specifically with sex. and sex discrimination. okay, the equal rights amendment, the era for short. this idea is pretty old. this idea had gone all the way back to the 1920s. and it was really revived in the 1960s with the national organization of women picking up this fight to once again call for this equal rights amendment. supporters of the equal rights amendment argued that the constitution needed a unique amendment that dealt specifically with gender and sex discrimination. current supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg in 1973 argued this, and i quote. the equal rights amendment in some would dedicate the nation to a new view of the rights and responsibilities o

women. and that's going to be another theme of my stock. to talk about the women voter is -- makes almost no sense in american politics. here, i want to talk about women, depending upon where they livid. so this is showing you turnout of, again, women in purple, men in gold, in ten american states. and i'm going to try to speak -- i can't read it very well here. virginia is at the end, our own massachusetts is next. connecticut, oklahoma, minnesota, kansas, illinois, iowa, missouri, and kentucky. and what i hope you can see is that there's a huge variation, depending on where you lived in what's women's turnout look like in 1920. in some places, women's turnout was incredibly low. fewer than 10% turned out to vote in virginia in 1920. only a little bit higher, just around 20%, here in massachusetts and in connecticut. on the other hand, there were other places where the turnout of women was actually quite impressive. more than half of women took advantage of the right to vote the first time

yes celebrate women's achievements but in 2020 millions of girls and women around the world continue to fight against the odds that deprived of an education and jobs condemned to a life of poverty and violence their voices silenced and afghanistan women are rising up to protect their hard won rights now understood it by the return of the taliban in the u.s. the world's most powerful democracy dreams of the 1st female president dashed again after another strong woman candidate bites the dust women in power and powerless women will the world ever know gender parity and what will it take a male iraq this is the day. of the month during the taliban period i stayed at home and unfortunately couldn't go to school like thousands of other girls suffer from within 2 or 3 months of the future of afghanistan will be in the hands of the taliban's on that the taliban have suppressed women for years to come out of our youth will not be running for president in 2020 but i guarantee i will stay in the fight and really stand out i love the list with laura and i wanted her to be our 1st woman presiden

women gives a voice to the women of our world. i was ashamed. i was told i was dirty. i thought i might bleed to death. for a lot of young women the 1st menstruation is a frightening experience and in many societies prejudice and alienation make matters worse in some countries around home. when they're having their periods and expensive sanitary products and poor hygiene conditions mean it's common for women not to work when menstruating either which has a financial impact on and sometimes menstruation even threatens livelihoods and women turn to drastic measures to stop it. have been qur'an is a sugarcane harvester she's only 34 but already she's physically barely able to perform the work 8 years ago she had a hysterectomy to stop or periods she couldn't afford to miss a day or 2 of work whenever she was menstruating but the surgery left her with serious health problems. that i'm in constant pain i have to take medication every day my whole body hurts my back my head my legs everything hurts. fieldworkers in india earn very little and none as little as the king carter

the women. right? the women. so a lot of the women are married. we talked about there are all sorts of quickie weddings going on. but people who have been married for a while as well decide, how do you get by? if you're a household with a husband and a wife in this time period, you know, it's a partnership and each has their role and they're much more defined roles in world war ii than today. so this idea of how are you going to do both your job as the wife and often the mother, and the job of the husband? how do you do this? this is a very popular book, this came out in 19 42. so your husband's gone to war. this idea of what do you do? how do you get through it? you can see from the cover tackling male chorse. because chores were defined by male and female,. and any woman, any widow, any woman like that does everything. right? if you live on your own you do your own thing, put your own libet bulbs in make your own repairs. but this book gives some guidance. this book to help women know how to do those little maintenance jobs that they needed to.

other women. i had a lot of women and they talk about what you're talking about people saying was going to watch your kids? they causally say who's going to take care of your kids while you are on the road? it's come up all the time. all i can say is, my conclusion is that in order to combat that, you just need more women. when women can get direct primary, they will get elected but i had to get to the primary and i think you see that's where a lot of that start. >> box up your books that reflect on the republican women the democratic women experience and there were some differences you assessed. i share with you the joy when i look at our side of the aisle and it is diversity and from artery and the color, literally a color because you just see this tapestry of america and when i look to the other side and largely icy more somber suit and mostly men and i want that other side of the aisle to look like america, i want the other side to be more bright and what comments did you make in the book that

today for the league and we see women in the women's game continues to grow both domestically and internationally have to get its own believe before in football faced with open a game to play it out wembley said from the both of us $77.00 posts some funds out there to support yeah when i fessed up playing to a love football like high level football the and over you know there was one no money in the game people would train and twice a week in the evenings she wasn't professional at all and then you look at now more fully professional so to understand where we're going we 1st need to think go back to see how we got here. germany and england have a lot of history between them women's football has actually been banned in both countries yes band since their start in 1902 the german national team has won literally everything there is to win multiple times. the buena sligo was once considered the best league in the world responsible for producing some of the best talent in women's football go inside because i was. born to. guns feel you. don't know. the but i'm self-taught in. some thailand's outmost a

six women have been selected to pave the way for future women in naval aviation.y are expected to perform the same as men. they go through the same classes, same drills, same exercises come and they fly the same planes. on may 10, 1973, lieutenant judith nupur became the first woman to solo in a navy aircraft when she took off from the naval air station -- t-34 from the naval air station. >> it was a very good feeling to know that i had actually taken that plane off and brought it back home all my own. it was definitely a feeling of satisfaction, the feeling of having gotten over one hurdle. and i think it helped to sort of build a little confidence -- of build a little confidence, that we are in the program, we can fly the planes and we are able to cope with the pressures and the rigorous training that we are involved in. >> our navy strength lies in the fact that individuals are given the chance to show what they can do, black or white, male or female, the opportunity is there. these women prove it. the ladies who wear the navy blue. (music) >> on lectures in hi

women ea women's domestic role was important. paul harvey talked quickly, but he has a line about the farmer worked all day in the fields and then he comes and eats supper and goes and spends all evening at a school board. we what doesn't get mentioned, comes and eats his supper. who did the shopping or the cooking or doing the dishes? who did the work that allowed you to come in from the fields and who put the kids to bed and bathed and so forth? again, it's not to diminish either people's roles, which are both important, but to fully acknowledge both of them. okay? so this idea that women's reproductive work is often undervalued. that it's seen not as work but as natural. it's like women just do this automatically. you know? we're naturally mothers. we naturally want to care. we naturally want to cook and clean and so forth. so what i want to finish up with now is in this class, moving forward, we're going to think about the different ways that this agrarian ideology is changing, has been challenged and is changing. and what i

they rank men above women in islam. this is a culture doesn't encourage women to speak out for themselves. most. women are simply afraid to talk with a me will he had the courage to speak up yet she feels that she has to remain silent in public for fear of repercussions. no one should be able to live in fear of speaking up. to chance what industry is still very male dominated around the world including in africa but in a country like kenya more and more women are venturing into the transport business we met one of these women in nairobi who is braving the challenges and making a bold statement. for carolina song the day begins at 5 am it's dark and the neighborhood isn't the safest but her job demands an early start . to conduct on one of my robi's buses on my tattoos at the local. single mom the job pays the school fees for 2 sons an adopted child and her sister . it doesn't mean a lot because even a month when you can imagine when that we're taking my 1st one in 41 we were 15 i think who are only. even my mother said

don't miss out on international women's day. we tell the stories of women around the world. their rights and their struggles and their game theory is coming from that hot hard french independence self-determined life. unafraid to speak out africa will be developed when a girl is given the right son joseph may be boys. and afraid to stand out. not just on international women's day. on d. w. . fuck my sardar lost her father at an early age her family became impoverished and she had to quit school to help support that she lives in mark rasch morocco are such families are often socially ostracized as well but as a fighter. i have a great opportunity and i'm going to do something. when 5 my sardar makes herself a 1st tee of the day her mother and sister are still asleep she's the only one who has a job and she's the only one who has to get up early sometimes that's tough but her for apprenticeship is like winning the lottery. people always say to make your dreams come true you have to struggle i don't know how to put this but i want to be worth something and like everyone else ha

so i would just ask do liberal women support women as a whole or just other liberal women? me right now, fox nation host tommy marin. tommy, good to see you. it's over and over and over again. it's nauseating to see how they treat women differently based on their politics. they say women need to stand together. clearly, that does not include conservative women. >> well, what they really mean that women need to come together to support liberal women. but when it comes the conservative women, they are quite happy to lead the charge. you and i have both experienced that as have many other conservative women, and they also are really quick to annihilate and disparage women that are doing very well in the sphere right now, marsha blackburn, of course ivanka trump, she can never do anything right, melania are. so when they talk about supporting women, it's just the women they like. it's not really any other women -- trish, no i think they're out to destroy any woman who doesn't agree with them. and they'll also destroy women who might be of their party but maybe could hurt their

our women don't want to go to france to compete in the games but low and behold a lot of women did. and it wasn't just ethnic immigrants or quote/unquote lower class women but upper class women who played tennis or wanted to swim and they also wanted to go to the world games. and so famously the president of the a.u. said the women have found the games, we cannot control it, we cannot bar them any more. we only can control them. and so two years later you see women's athletic events being added to the stateside competitions, the a.u. competition and then into the olympic games in earnest by 1928. >> and based on what you were talking about earlier, professor, the idea of a negro league, was that a good thing or a bad thing from your perspective? >> yeah, well, i think that it's hard to say if it was good or bad. it is what it was. it was a time of jim crow. where we had state sanctioned violence and rampant segregation across the country and really blackball players had no other choice. the negro leagues like negro colleges and black businesses, black wall street, banks, schools, ev
