Laura Engelhardt and Susan Ferris Rights, co-directors of the Songs of the Suffragists Project, will present their short documentary and lead a discussion for the library's members and guests detailing the closely contested fight for gender equality in this country, the tremendous progress we've made towards that goal, and the chance for us to make a difference going forward.

From the right to vote to the right to be free from violence, U.S. women have campaigned for equality since the founding of our country. But the women’s movement is more than a mere political fight, it’s a cultural battle for hearts and minds.
