feminism

Early feminists had their gathering in 1848, and there is still much to learn from the reaction to their declaration of independence. Ridiculed and threatened, these brave women to whom we owe a debt did not give up easily...in Stanton’s words: “No words could express what seemed to us so timely, so rational, and so sacred, should be a subject for sarcasm and ridicule to the entire press of the nation.” 

This past weekend, ten women gathered for the 11th Principle Quest retreat.

Next year will include one more retreat in April, and who knows for 2019?

Congratulations to Gayle Jennings O'Byrne, whose financial acumen now laser focused on start ups by women of color was recently profiled in Forbes. These companies are growing fast and repesent 8 out of 10 start ups founded by women. Continued success to you, Maya Ventures, the Harriet Fund and Harriet Angels.
