Claire Gastanaga, partner at Dunlap Law PLC is moderating a fantastic panel on the history of women and the law with a rockstar panel: Elizabeth Katz (professor of law, participating virtually), the Honorable Anne Holton, the Honorable Jean Cunningham, Sara Tandy (assistant dean, University of Richmond School of Law) and Faith Alejandro (partner, Sands Anderson PC). Virginia was slow to expand full citizenship rights and opportunities to women. Essentially, it was only 100 years ago that Virginia law recognized women as full citizens, entitled to #suffrage, own property, go to #lawschool and become #lawyers. Virginia did not ratify the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote, until 1952 (32 years after it was fully ratified by 3/4 of other states). Gaining our FULL spectrum of #humanrights took over 160 years. Today, the #rights of American #women are narrower than when I was a girl. The fight continues. Thank you, Virginia Law Foundation for the Women and the Law Institute!
