Women Rise – DAWN event to honor RBG

RBG would have been 89 years old on March 15, so let’s gather for a virtual brunch to celebrate the Supreme Queen and honor the work that she has championed to empower women everywhere. The event will kick off with a live performance by Joyce Randolph followed by empowered women paying tribute to RBG and sharing inspiration and insight on what’s next in the fight for gender justice. Special guest speaker, Ruth Silver Taube. Opening comments by Sally Armendariz and Miracle Tao. Santa Clara Youth Poet Laureate Candidate Trisha Lyer will share some of her beautiful and thought provoking writings with us.
