Episode #154 This WONDERFUL WOMEN’S WEDNESDAY, we continue to celebrate amazing women during Women’s History Month.  Today we celebrate Madeleine Albright.  Madeleine was the first woman to serve as U.S. Secretary of State (1997–2001).and a long-time public servant committed to serving the needs of women and girls.  Born Marie Jana Korbel in Prague, Czechoslovakia [now in the Czech Republic], she lost 26 family members in the Holocaust.  She also served as U.S.  Ambassador to the United Nations (1993–97).  Madeleine joined Georgetown’s faculty in the School of Foreign Service in 1982. Nick Schifrin reports and Judy Woodruff speaks with former President Bill Clinton by phone to discuss her life and career. Secretary Albright inspired students not only to understand the world, but to serve the world. “I love teaching at Georgetown,” she said. “I’m sometimes known as ‘Secretary,’ but most of all I like being known as ‘Professor.'” said in her Georgetown University Class of 2019 Graduation speech. Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright says receiving the Medal of Freedom from President Barack Obama, the nation's highest civilian honor, left her "almost" speechless.

Episode #151 - This WONDERFUL WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH WEDNESDAY, we proudly celebrate amazing women.  Women’s History Month is an annual declared month that highlights the contributions of women to events in history and contemporary society. It is celebrated during March in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, corresponding with International Women's Day on March 8, and during October in Canada, corresponding with the celebration of Persons Day on October 18. The commemoration began in 1978 as "Women's History day" in Sonoma County California, and was championed by Gerda Lerner and the National Women's History Alliance to be recognized as a national week (1980) and then month (1987) in the United States, spreading internationally after that.  In 1987, after being petitioned by the National Women's History Project, Congress passed Pub. L. 100-9 which designated the month of March 1987 as Women's History Month. Between 1988 and 1994, Congress passed additional resolutions requesting and authorizing the President to proclaim March of each year as Women's History Month. Since 1988, U.S. presidents have issued annual proclamations designating the month of March as Women's History Month.  Did you know women couldn’t get their own credit cards until 1974?  WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY?
