The Quest for Equality: Progress or Retreat?

May 20, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

As we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment – how far has our nation and our world come in creating an equitable world?  Join Margaret Marshall, former (and first female) Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court and the author of the groundbreaking decision that legalized same-sex marriage; Jane Mendillo, the first woman to manage Harvard’s endowment; and Danielle Allen, political scientist and Director of Harvard’s Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics in this wide-ranging conversation concerning the past, present, and future.

This program coincides with the special exhibition Every Path Laid Open: Women of Concord and the Quest for Equality.  Book your timed-entry ticket to visit the exhibition at concordmuseum.org.
