Women: Superior, Yet Inferior

Compared to men, women commit fewer crimes, hold more graduate degrees, and are better long-term investors. But women earn less than men, and more women live in poverty. How long will women tolerate an inferior status?

Last week, I sat in on the filming of an episode of 4th Street Forum"Women: Superior, Yet Inferior." The program touched upon a wide variety of topics associated with women's equality in the public and private spheres. 

4th Street Forum is a nonpartisan program that promotes public discussion of political and social issues that concern our community. Each week, a panel of experts presents their views on a chosen topic and explores solutions with the audience and the 4th Street Forum moderator.
