Critical Mass: What Happens When Women Start to Rule the World - led by Jay Newton-Small

Week Two:

The Senate: A quarter century after the Year of the Women, the women of the Senate finally began to assert some power.

In a world where hyper-partisanship hampered most of their male colleagues, it often took a woman to get anything done.

Guest: Senator Kay Hagan

Room: FDR, HKS
