Annual Meeting and Continental Breakfast |
At the meeting we will elect officers for the coming year, review the achiemements of the past year, and conduct any other business. We have invited Elisa Sumner, chair of the Dutchess County Democratic Committee, to share her perspective on the upcoming local elections and the past national elections. We also plan to show the movie Iron Jawed Angels. Katja von Garnier's "Iron Jawed Angels" tells the remarkable and little-known story of a group of passionate and dynamic young women, led by Alice Paul (Hilary Swank) and her friend Lucy Burns (Frances O'Connor), who put their lives on the line to fight for American women's right to vote.
