About the event
On March 8, the International Women's Day, it is fitting that Women Supporting Women has sponsored a FREE screening of RATIFIED. This film is the inspiring story of a multi-racial, multi-generational, bipartisan effort to make Virginia the final state required to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment. It's also a story about the incredible perseverance of women. For more than 100 years we have worked to get equal rights and protection for women written into the Constitution of the United States.
