What's in store for the future of the women's movement?

On the next Your Call, we continue a two-part special about the state of the women's movement in the U.S. What should the priorities and goals be? How will we get there? What are the differences between gaining power and being empowered? Where are women and girls finding inspiration and role models? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What are the primary struggles facing women today? And in what ways are women empowered? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Ruth Rosen, journalist, historian of gender and society, and visiting history professor at UC Berkeley

Myra Duran, national campus organizer with the Feminist Majority Foundation, organizer for Barbara Boxer's re-election campaign, and recent graduate from UCLA

Mariam Saeed, student of political science at SF State University and intern with Your Call
