Celebrating Women's History Month At The Dunedin Public Library

1848 is a pivotal year in the history of the women's movement as two significant conferences (Conference of Badasht and the Seneca Falls Convention) happened almost at the same time. One was in the east and the other one was in the west. The two women who had a big role in those conferences, Tahirih and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, will be at the center of this presentation.
