SURVIVAL OF THE SQUAD: VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN OF COLOR IN POLITICS Panel; Thu, 10/07/2021 - 03:45pm (Eastern)
Women of color have made significant electoral gains across the United States in the last decade, but what do we know about their experience on the campaign trail — from candidate to office holder?

We’ll examine these questions, consider why and when women of color decide to run, and various tactics to retain and promote women of color in politics.
