Presented via Microsoft Teams and moderated by CofC scholar of women’s history Sandy Slater (History, CofC), this special live event centers on Jabour’s research on suffrage movement leader Sophonisba Breckinridge, who sought to address the needs of women of diverse socioeconomic backgrounds and create coalitions that brought together working women, African Americans and immigrants.
