SUMMARY:Suffrage: The Battle For Women's Rights To Vote
DESCRIPTION:They were called the “Soldiers In Petticoats\,” “Iron Jawed Angels” and “Suffragettes.” After a battle that spanned the 18th and 20th centuries\, generations of brilliant\, determined women fought for the right to vote. \n2020 marked the 100th anniversary of American women being granted the Constitutional right to vote. The history of women voting is important\, but little-known\, crusade for civil rights in America. \nThe struggle was long\, arduous\, and dangerous. Although many Americans know the name of Susan B. Anthony (click here to read how she was arrested for voting!) most are unfamiliar with the long list of brave women who led the 150-year-old movement!

SUMMARY:Betty White: America's Favorite Potty Mouthed Grandma
DESCRIPTION:The fabulous Betty White has been called an American national treasure – and rightly so! Up until her death at 99\, Betty White was a beacon of positivity even in the most difficult years! Witty\, working\, and happy\, Betty White was beloved by Americans of every age\, race\, and gender.! \nYear in and year out\, Betty White was voted one of America’s most beloved entertainers.  In 2018\, she was chosen as the most trusted person in America! You know her as the seemingly sweet we but secretly scheming sexpot Sue Anne Nivens on the iconic  “Mary Tyler Moore Show\,” the naïve and trusting Rose Nyland on the classic  “Golden Girls\,” and the outrageous and somewhat loopy Elka Ostrovsky on ” Hot in Cleveland.” Betty White has been a staple on talk shows\, a host and panelist on game shows\, and has even performed in some popular movies\, including one classic film drama about politics in which she played a U.S. Senator! \nYou may not know that Betty White was a pioneer in the early days of television\, being the first woman to produce her own show!  The amazing Ms. White is a best-selling author and tireless advocate for animals. Most importantly\, she is widely considered one of the nicest people in all show business. This warm\, charming and funny presentation is loaded with hilarious video clips and great stories about the one and only Betty White. \nCLICK HERE FOR FREE REGISTRATION! \n

SUMMARY:Our First First Ladies
DESCRIPTION:The Founding Father never gave a moment’s thought to the role of the President wife. In fact\, the term “First Lay” itself would be unknown for fifty years! \nNonetheless\, the first women to hold the title of “First Lady”  were in amazing group of strong and dedicated women! Martha Washington\, Abigail Adams and Dolley Madison\, in particular\, were vastly influential in ways the country did not yet recognize. They were very different one from another and each added something unique and wonderful to the national experience. Beginning with Martha Washington we will trace the early years of the first ladies.
