Join us for a program with authors Donna Brazile, Yolanda Caraway, Leah Daughtry, and Minyon Moore as they discuss the lessons they’ve learned and the fights they’ve won and lost. Together, they call themselves the Colored Girls. As political strategists, organizers, CEOs, and more, they have made history and shaped politics. Moderated by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jonathan Capehart, these trailblazers will share their personal journeys, marked by incredible successes and milestones, and offer a roadmap for other women of color A book signing will follow the program.
