Diocese of El Camino Real in California

Join us for this morning retreat with Ida B. Wells (1862-1931),  a well-known African American suffragist and journalist, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg (1933-2020), the Jewish Supreme Court justice, both of whom contributed mightily to women’s rights.  The ECW Retreat will be led by The Rev. Linda McConnell.

Come and learn about Women’s persistence more than 100 years ago to earn all women the right of citizenship through the right to vote.

On August 18, 1920, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution was finally ratified, enfranchising all American women, and declaring for the first time that they, like men, deserve all rights and responsibilities of citizenship.

Meeting time is PDS – Pacific
