Because I am a woman, I must make unusual efforts to succeed. If I fail, no one will say, "She doesn't have what it takes." They will say, "Women don't have what it takes." ~Clare Boothe Luce

Hi Women's Center Fans,

As you know, one of our bulletin board topics this month is "Female Social Activists" where we salute female social activists and reformers around the world. I found a video about Gloria Steinem, an American social activist and one of the women on the bulletin board this month. In this video she... is being interviewed on a variety of topics concerning women. I think this video is very interesting and I hope you enjoy it.
