This is What Women Want: A Pre-Debate Speakout in Nashville 5:00 p.m.  –  7:00 p.m.

Presented by the Center for New Words and Co-sponsored by Margaret Cuninggim Women's Center, the Vanderbilt Anthropology Department and Leadership Development and Intercultural Affairs.

Are you tired of being talked about this election season?

Done with being represented by skewed polls and stereotypes?

Then don't miss the This Is What Women Want Pre-Debate Speakout!

This Is What Women Want is your chance to cut through the spin and tell the media, the candidates and the world exactly what you want this election season.

We've launched a This Is What Women Want Tour of speakouts across the country, taking place in each debate city the night before the debate. At each location, local and national media will sit up and listen to women - from the very famous to the not-yet-known. It could be your voice at that mic!

Come tell us exactly what you want from the candidates, the media and the next President. We'll be sending the best speakouts to the media and the candidates.

From sexism, racism, and other bias in the media's coverage of the campaign, to immigration, war, poverty, health care, reproductive justice, sexual freedom, worker's rights, violence, education, environmental concerns and more, this is an unprecedented chance to set the agenda for the country. Whether you've got a criticism of the status quo or a visionary idea that no one has yet considered, we want to hear from you.

Our goal is simple: to ensure that the real and varied concerns of women are a force to be reckoned with this election season.

Monday, Oct. 6th @ 5PM

FREE! THERE WILL BE FOOD TOO!

Location: Vanderbilt University Club, 2402 Garland Avenue, Nashville (The University Club is located just behind Branscomb and the Student Life Center on campus.)

This is a child-friendly event. Please feel free to pick you your children from school or day care and join us for this important event.
