Program

One hundred years ago, American women were denied the right to vote, to serve on juries, and other basic civil rights. Their effective-if limited-service, during World War 1 provided undeniable proof of their equal capabilities.

This fast-paced illustrated talk discusses wartime attituded toward women, as well as the achievements of the Women's Reserve Camouflages Corps.
