あらすじ・解説
In this episode, Andrew Jose speaks with former California State Assemblywoman Mary Chung Hayashi, about her latest book, Women in Politics: Breaking Down the Barriers to Achieve True Representation.
Women in the United States first gained their right to vote through the 1930 Women’s Enfranchisement Act.
Since then, women have not only participated in the electoral process as mere voters but have also gone on to break the glass ceiling in party leadership, local and state elections, and even become Vice President of the United States.
Should Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for the November 2024 U.S. Presidential Elections, win, the United States will also have its first female president, a milestone likely to spur women to run for the White House in the future, regardless of their affections for Harris.
Despite the progress accrued over the years by champions of women’s representation in all areas of society, particularly the workplace, major barriers still exist for young girls who seek to lead the country in politics.
What are these barriers? How can women overcome them? How have other female leaders overcome them?
