League of Women Voters

In January 2025 I gave a presentation for my local League of Women Voters of Martin County (FL) for their monthly "Hot Topic" luncheon series. My talk was on the limitations of the 19th Amendment for women's political and legal equality and the early history of the LWV, nationally and in Florida. We had a great turnout, good food, and I enjoyed getting to know many hardworking local League members!
