0:00:00.661,0:00:03.372
Nearly 100 years ago,

0:00:03.396,0:00:04.826
almost today,

0:00:04.850,0:00:08.206
most women in the United States[br]finally won the right to vote.

0:00:08.862,0:00:14.502
Now, it would take decades more[br]for women of color to earn that right,

0:00:14.526,0:00:16.226
and we've come a long way since,

0:00:16.250,0:00:19.421
but I would argue not nearly far enough.

0:00:20.077,0:00:21.603
I think what women want today,

0:00:21.627,0:00:24.674
not just only in the United States[br]but around the globe,

0:00:24.698,0:00:27.000
is to no longer be an afterthought.

0:00:28.001,0:00:31.669
We don't want to continue to try to,[br]like, look at the next 100 years

0:00:31.693,0:00:35.856
and be granted, grudgingly,[br]small legal rights and accommodations.

0:00:36.629,0:00:39.477
We simply want true and full equality.

0:00:40.490,0:00:43.172
I think that women are tired[br]of retrofitting ourselves

0:00:43.196,0:00:47.816
into institutions and governments[br]that were built by men, for men,

0:00:47.840,0:00:52.386
and we'd rather reshape the future[br]on our own terms.

0:00:53.138,0:00:54.288
I believe --

0:00:54.312,0:00:57.616
(Applause)

0:00:57.640,0:01:02.132
I believe what we need is a women's[br]political revolution for full equality

0:01:02.156,0:01:06.562
across race, across class,[br]across gender identity,

0:01:06.586,0:01:08.130
across sexual orientation,

0:01:08.154,0:01:10.499
and yes, across political labels,

0:01:10.523,0:01:13.799
because I believe what binds us[br]together as women

0:01:13.823,0:01:17.304
is so much more profound[br]than what keeps up apart.

0:01:17.711,0:01:19.177
And so I've given some thought

0:01:19.201,0:01:21.697
about how to build[br]this women's political revolution

0:01:21.721,0:01:24.287
and that's what I want[br]to talk to you about today.

0:01:24.311,0:01:26.474
(Cheers)

0:01:26.494,0:01:28.569
(Applause)

0:01:28.593,0:01:32.607
The good news is that one thing[br]that hasn't changed in the last century

0:01:32.631,0:01:34.195
is women's resilience

0:01:34.219,0:01:37.465
and our commitment to build[br]a better life not only for ourselves,

0:01:37.489,0:01:39.526
but for generations to come,

0:01:39.550,0:01:41.694
because I can't think of a single woman

0:01:41.718,0:01:43.116
who wants her daughter

0:01:43.140,0:01:46.640
to have fewer rights[br]or opportunities than she's had.

0:01:47.531,0:01:52.432
So we know we all stand on the shoulders[br]of the women who came before us,

0:01:52.456,0:01:53.607
and as for myself,

0:01:53.631,0:01:56.542
I come from a long line[br]of tough Texas women.

0:01:56.566,0:01:58.337
(Cheers)

0:01:58.727,0:02:01.536
My grandparents[br]lived outside of Waco, Texas,

0:02:01.560,0:02:03.038
in the country.

0:02:03.062,0:02:05.393
And when my grandmother got pregnant,

0:02:05.417,0:02:08.380
of course she was not going[br]to go to the hospital to deliver,

0:02:08.404,0:02:10.565
she was going to have that baby at home.

0:02:10.589,0:02:12.017
But when she went into labor,

0:02:12.041,0:02:15.883
she called the neighbor woman over[br]to cook dinner for my grandfather,

0:02:15.907,0:02:17.310
because ...

0:02:17.334,0:02:20.729
I mean, it was unthinkable that he[br]was going to make supper for himself.

0:02:20.753,0:02:22.507
(Laughter)

0:02:22.531,0:02:25.142
Been there.

0:02:25.166,0:02:28.280
(Laughter)

0:02:28.304,0:02:30.876
The neighbor had no experience[br]with killing a chicken,

0:02:30.900,0:02:33.799
and that was what was planned[br]for dinner that night.

0:02:33.823,0:02:36.116
And so as the story goes,

0:02:36.140,0:02:39.559
my grandmother,[br]in the birthing bed, in labor,

0:02:39.583,0:02:43.931
hoists herself up on one elbow[br]and wrings that chicken's neck, right?

0:02:43.955,0:02:46.212
And that is how my mother[br]came into this world.

0:02:46.236,0:02:47.710
(Laughter)

0:02:47.734,0:02:51.584
(Applause)

0:02:51.608,0:02:53.490
But the amazing thing is,

0:02:53.514,0:02:56.764
even though my mother's own grandmother[br]could not vote in Texas,

0:02:56.788,0:02:58.842
because under Texas law,

0:02:58.866,0:03:03.616
"idiots, imbeciles, the insane and women"

0:03:03.640,0:03:05.845
were prevented the franchise --

0:03:05.869,0:03:07.700
just two generations later,

0:03:07.724,0:03:12.108
my mother, Ann Richards, was elected[br]the first woman governor in her own right

0:03:12.132,0:03:13.337
in the state of Texas.

0:03:13.361,0:03:20.317
(Applause and cheers)

0:03:20.341,0:03:23.817
But you see, when Mom[br]was coming up in Texas,

0:03:23.841,0:03:26.213
there weren't a lot[br]of opportunities for women,

0:03:26.237,0:03:29.722
and frankly, she spent her entire life[br]trying to change that.

0:03:30.341,0:03:31.801
She used to like to say,

0:03:31.825,0:03:35.681
"As women, if you just give[br]us a chance, we can perform.

0:03:35.705,0:03:39.601
After all, Ginger Rogers[br]did everything Fred Astaire did,

0:03:39.625,0:03:41.965
but she did it backwards[br]and in high heels."

0:03:41.989,0:03:43.332
Right?

0:03:43.356,0:03:47.262
And honestly, that's kind of what women[br]have been doing for this last century:

0:03:47.286,0:03:50.464
despite having very, very little[br]political power,

0:03:50.488,0:03:52.924
we have made enormous progress.

0:03:52.948,0:03:54.384
So today in the United States,

0:03:54.408,0:03:56.436
100 years after getting the right to vote,

0:03:56.460,0:03:58.280
women are almost half the workforce.

0:03:58.641,0:04:01.554
And in 40 percent[br]of families with children,

0:04:01.578,0:04:03.543
women are the major breadwinners.

0:04:04.218,0:04:05.514
Economists even estimate

0:04:05.538,0:04:10.162
that if every single paid working woman[br]took just one day off of work,

0:04:10.186,0:04:13.576
it would cost the United States[br]21 billion dollars

0:04:13.600,0:04:15.104
in gross domestic product.

0:04:16.139,0:04:20.825
Now, largely because of Title IX,[br]which required educational equity,

0:04:20.849,0:04:24.222
women are actually now half[br]the college students in the United States.

0:04:24.246,0:04:27.223
We're half the medical students,[br]we're half the law students --

0:04:27.247,0:04:28.398
Exactly.

0:04:28.422,0:04:29.573
(Applause)

0:04:29.597,0:04:31.947
And a fact I absolutely love:

0:04:31.971,0:04:36.204
One of the most recent classes of[br]graduating NASA astronauts was ...

0:04:36.228,0:04:37.379
What?

0:04:37.403,0:04:39.202
For the first time, 50 percent women.

0:04:39.226,0:04:42.579
(Applause and cheers)

0:04:42.603,0:04:45.603
The point is that women[br]are really changing industries,

0:04:45.627,0:04:48.552
they're changing business[br]from the inside out.

0:04:49.209,0:04:52.491
But when it comes to government,[br]it's another story,

0:04:52.515,0:04:55.390
and I actually think a picture[br]is worth 1000 words.

0:04:55.933,0:04:59.267
This is a photograph from 2017[br]at the White House

0:04:59.291,0:05:03.164
when congressional leaders[br]were called over to put the final details

0:05:03.188,0:05:06.259
into the health-care reform bill[br]that was to go to Congress.

0:05:06.283,0:05:08.745
Now, one of the results of this meeting

0:05:08.769,0:05:11.694
was that they got rid[br]of maternity benefits,

0:05:11.718,0:05:13.341
which may not be that surprising,

0:05:13.365,0:05:16.705
since no one at that table[br]actually would need maternity benefits.

0:05:17.241,0:05:19.940
And unfortunately,[br]that's what we've learned the hard way

0:05:19.964,0:05:21.221
in the US for women.

0:05:21.245,0:05:24.805
If we're not at the table,[br]we're on the menu, right?

0:05:24.829,0:05:30.551
And we're simply not at enough tables,

0:05:30.575,0:05:33.292
because even though women[br]are the vast majority of voters

0:05:33.316,0:05:34.467
in the United States,

0:05:34.491,0:05:37.845
we fall far behind the rest of the world[br]in political representation.

0:05:38.591,0:05:42.583
Recent research is that when[br]they ranked all the countries,

0:05:42.607,0:05:47.153
the United States is 104th[br]in women's representation in office.

0:05:47.177,0:05:50.002
104th ...

0:05:50.026,0:05:51.849
Right behind Indonesia.

0:05:52.836,0:05:55.088
So is it any big surprise, then,

0:05:55.112,0:05:56.941
considering who's making decisions,

0:05:56.965,0:05:59.878
we're the only developed country[br]with no paid family leave?

0:06:00.711,0:06:03.506
And despite all the research[br]and improvements we've made

0:06:03.530,0:06:04.967
in medical care --

0:06:04.991,0:06:07.110
and this is really horrifying to me --

0:06:07.134,0:06:11.722
the United States now leads the developed[br]world in maternal mortality rates.

0:06:12.697,0:06:15.941
Now, when it comes to equal pay,[br]we're not doing a whole lot better.

0:06:15.965,0:06:18.077
Women now, on average,[br]in the United States,

0:06:18.101,0:06:21.132
still only make 80 cents[br]to the dollar that a man makes.

0:06:21.156,0:06:23.199
Though if you're[br]an African American woman,

0:06:23.223,0:06:25.525
it's 63 cents to the dollar.

0:06:25.549,0:06:29.326
And if you're Latina,[br]it's 54 cents to the dollar.

0:06:29.350,0:06:30.573
It's an outrage.

0:06:30.949,0:06:33.281
Now, women in the UK, the United Kingdom,

0:06:33.305,0:06:36.112
just came up with something[br]I thought was rather ingenious,

0:06:36.136,0:06:38.628
in order to illustrate[br]the impact of the pay gap.

0:06:39.001,0:06:42.917
So, starting November 10[br]and going through the end of the year,

0:06:42.941,0:06:45.702
they simply put an out-of-office[br]memo on their email

0:06:45.726,0:06:49.092
to indicate all the weeks[br]they were working without pay.

0:06:49.116,0:06:50.267
Right?

0:06:50.291,0:06:53.122
I think it's an idea[br]that actually could catch on.

0:06:53.885,0:06:57.149
But imagine if women[br]actually had political power.

0:06:57.569,0:07:01.614
Imagine if we were at the table,[br]making decisions.

0:07:02.537,0:07:05.279
Imagine if we had our own[br]women's political party

0:07:05.303,0:07:08.428
that instead of putting our issues[br]to the side as distractions,

0:07:08.452,0:07:10.680
made them the top priority.

0:07:11.947,0:07:13.245
Well, we know --

0:07:13.269,0:07:15.378
research shows[br]that when women are in office,

0:07:15.402,0:07:18.109
they actually act differently than men.

0:07:18.546,0:07:20.807
They collaborate more[br]with their colleagues,

0:07:20.831,0:07:23.096
they work across party lines,

0:07:23.120,0:07:25.807
and women are much more likely[br]to support legislation

0:07:25.831,0:07:30.060
that improves access to health care,[br]education, civil rights.

0:07:30.839,0:07:33.916
And what we've seen in our research[br]in the United States Congress

0:07:33.940,0:07:36.108
is that women sponsor more legislation

0:07:36.132,0:07:37.927
and they cosponsor more legislation.

0:07:37.951,0:07:41.705
So all the evidence is that when women[br]actually have the chance to serve,

0:07:41.729,0:07:44.752
they make a huge difference[br]and they get the job done.

0:07:45.155,0:07:49.243
So how would it look in the United States[br]if different people were making decisions?

0:07:50.230,0:07:53.768
Well, I firmly believe[br]if half of Congress could get pregnant,

0:07:53.792,0:07:56.220
we would finally quit fighting[br]about birth control

0:07:56.244,0:07:57.429
and Planned Parenthood.

0:07:57.453,0:07:58.599
(Applause and cheers)

0:07:58.623,0:07:59.774
That would be over.

0:07:59.798,0:08:04.870
(Applause)

0:08:04.894,0:08:07.292
I also really believe that finally,

0:08:07.316,0:08:12.213
businesses might quit[br]treating pregnancy as a nuisance,

0:08:12.237,0:08:15.351
and rather understand it[br]as a primary medical issue

0:08:15.375,0:08:17.518
for millions of American workers.

0:08:18.573,0:08:21.129
And I think if more women were in office,

0:08:21.153,0:08:25.455
our government would actually prioritize[br]keeping families together

0:08:25.479,0:08:27.265
rather than pulling them apart.

0:08:27.289,0:08:31.072
(Applause)

0:08:31.096,0:08:34.320
But perhaps most importantly,

0:08:34.344,0:08:37.954
I think all of these issues would[br]no longer be seen as "women's issues."

0:08:38.396,0:08:41.898
They would just be seen as basic issues[br]of fairness and equality

0:08:41.922,0:08:44.446
that everybody can get behind.

0:08:46.153,0:08:47.524
So I think the question is,

0:08:47.548,0:08:51.831
what would it take, actually, to build[br]this women's political revolution?

0:08:52.335,0:08:55.666
The good news is, actually,[br]it's already started.

0:08:56.397,0:08:59.452
Because women around the globe[br]are demanding workplaces,

0:08:59.476,0:09:02.877
they're demanding[br]educational institutions,

0:09:02.901,0:09:04.401
they're demanding governments

0:09:04.425,0:09:09.342
where sexism and sexual harassment[br]and sexual assault are neither accepted

0:09:09.366,0:09:10.825
nor tolerated.

0:09:10.849,0:09:12.597
Women around the world, as we know,

0:09:12.621,0:09:15.748
are raising their hands[br]and saying, "Me Too,"

0:09:15.772,0:09:18.419
and it's a movement[br]that's made so much more powerful

0:09:18.443,0:09:21.751
by the fact that women[br]are standing together across industries,

0:09:21.775,0:09:25.743
from domestic workers[br]to celebrities in Hollywood.

0:09:26.417,0:09:29.530
Women are marching, we're sitting in,

0:09:29.554,0:09:30.844
we're speaking up.

0:09:30.868,0:09:33.311
Women are challenging the status quo,

0:09:33.335,0:09:35.242
we're busting old taboos

0:09:35.266,0:09:37.919
and yes, we are proudly making trouble.

0:09:38.266,0:09:42.735
So, women in Saudi Arabia[br]are driving for the very first time.

0:09:42.759,0:09:45.204
(Applause and cheers)

0:09:45.228,0:09:49.901
Women in Iraq are standing in solidarity[br]with survivors of human trafficking.

0:09:50.320,0:09:55.033
And women from El Salvador to Ireland[br]are fighting for reproductive rights.

0:09:55.479,0:09:59.114
And women in Myanmar[br]are standing up for human rights.

0:09:59.805,0:10:03.468
In short, I think the most profound[br]leadership in the world

0:10:03.492,0:10:05.314
isn't coming from halls of government.

0:10:05.338,0:10:08.848
It's coming from women[br]at the grassroots all across the globe.

0:10:08.872,0:10:12.465
(Applause)

0:10:12.489,0:10:17.151
And here in the United States,[br]women are on fire.

0:10:17.766,0:10:20.517
So a recent Kaiser poll reported

0:10:20.541,0:10:24.637
that since our last presidential[br]election in 2016,

0:10:24.661,0:10:28.682
one in five Americans have either marched[br]or taken part in a protest,

0:10:28.706,0:10:31.434
and the number one issue[br]has been women's rights.

0:10:31.950,0:10:34.076
Women are starting new organizations,

0:10:34.100,0:10:36.815
they are volunteering on campaigns,

0:10:36.839,0:10:38.859
and they're taking on every issue

0:10:38.883,0:10:42.598
from gun-safety reform[br]to public education.

0:10:43.323,0:10:46.370
And women are running for office[br]in record numbers,

0:10:46.394,0:10:47.883
and they are winning.

0:10:47.907,0:10:49.095
So -- (Laughs)

0:10:49.119,0:10:50.450
(Applause)

0:10:50.474,0:10:54.475
Women like Lucy McBath from Georgia.

0:10:54.499,0:10:57.907
(Applause and cheers)

0:10:58.455,0:11:02.740
Lucy lost her son to gun violence,

0:11:02.764,0:11:06.709
and it was because of her experience[br]with the criminal justice system

0:11:06.733,0:11:08.974
that she realized just how broken it is,

0:11:08.998,0:11:11.771
and she decided to do[br]something about that.

0:11:11.795,0:11:13.443
So she ran for office,

0:11:13.467,0:11:16.014
and this January, she's going to Congress.

0:11:16.038,0:11:18.019
OK? Or --

0:11:18.043,0:11:19.429
(Applause)

0:11:19.453,0:11:21.866
Angie Craig from Minnesota.

0:11:21.890,0:11:22.991
(Applause and cheers)

0:11:23.015,0:11:28.968
So her congressman had made[br]such hateful comments about LGBTQ people

0:11:28.992,0:11:31.184
that she decided to challenge him.

0:11:31.505,0:11:33.987
And you know what? She did, and she won,

0:11:34.011,0:11:35.964
and when she goes to Congress in January,

0:11:35.988,0:11:39.513
she'll be the first lesbian mother[br]serving in the House of Representatives.

0:11:39.537,0:11:41.322
(Applause and cheers)

0:11:41.346,0:11:42.517
Or --

0:11:42.541,0:11:44.077
(Applause)

0:11:44.101,0:11:46.870
Or Lauren Underwood from Illinois.

0:11:47.423,0:11:49.108
She's a registered nurse,

0:11:49.132,0:11:53.633
and she sees every day the impact[br]that lack of health care access has

0:11:53.657,0:11:55.834
on the community where she lives,

0:11:55.858,0:11:57.753
and so she decided to run.

0:11:57.777,0:12:00.850
She took on six men in her primary,[br]she beat them all,

0:12:00.874,0:12:02.257
she won the general election,

0:12:02.281,0:12:04.234
and when she goes to Congress in January,

0:12:04.258,0:12:06.836
she's going to be the first[br]African-American woman ever

0:12:06.860,0:12:08.855
to serve her district in Washington, D.C.

0:12:08.879,0:12:12.009
(Applause and cheers)

0:12:12.033,0:12:15.255
So women are recognizing --

0:12:15.279,0:12:16.699
this is our moment.

0:12:16.723,0:12:17.962
Don't wait for permission,

0:12:17.986,0:12:19.829
don't wait for your turn.

0:12:20.859,0:12:24.388
As the late, great[br]Shirley Chisholm said --

0:12:24.412,0:12:26.984
Shirley Chisholm, the first[br]African-American woman ever

0:12:27.008,0:12:28.276
to go to Congress

0:12:28.300,0:12:32.023
and the first woman to run for president[br]in the Democratic party --

0:12:32.047,0:12:34.490
but Shirley Chisholm said,

0:12:34.514,0:12:38.015
"If there's no room for you at the table,[br]just pull up a folding chair."

0:12:38.039,0:12:42.499
And that's what women are doing,[br]all across the country.

0:12:43.664,0:12:47.753
I believe women are now the most[br]important and powerful political force

0:12:47.777,0:12:49.326
in the world,

0:12:49.350,0:12:52.431
but how do we make sure[br]that this is not just a moment?

0:12:52.927,0:12:58.359
What we need is actually a global movement[br]for women's full equality

0:12:58.383,0:13:01.044
that is intersectional[br]and it's intergenerational,

0:13:01.068,0:13:02.801
where no one gets left behind.

0:13:03.117,0:13:05.983
And so I have a few ideas[br]about how we could do that.

0:13:06.838,0:13:09.054
Number one: it's not enough to resist.

0:13:09.078,0:13:11.170
It's not enough to say what we're against.

0:13:11.194,0:13:14.467
It's time to be loud and proud[br]about what we are for,

0:13:14.491,0:13:17.665
because being for full equality[br]is a mainstream value

0:13:17.689,0:13:19.692
and something that we can get behind.

0:13:19.716,0:13:22.845
Because actually, men support[br]equal pay for women.

0:13:22.869,0:13:25.598
Millennials, they support gender equality.

0:13:25.622,0:13:30.022
And businesses are increasingly adopting[br]family-friendly policies,

0:13:30.046,0:13:32.153
not just because[br]it's the right thing to do,

0:13:32.177,0:13:34.082
but because it's good for their workers.

0:13:34.106,0:13:35.604
It's good for their business.

0:13:36.555,0:13:38.254
Number two:

0:13:38.278,0:13:41.741
We have to remember,[br]in the words of Fannie Lou Hamer,

0:13:41.765,0:13:45.285
that "nobody's free[br]'til everybody's free."

0:13:45.665,0:13:47.288
So as I mentioned earlier,

0:13:47.312,0:13:50.818
women of color in this country[br]didn't even get the right to vote

0:13:50.842,0:13:53.765
until much further along[br]than the rest of us.

0:13:54.257,0:13:57.212
But since they did,[br]they are the most reliable voters,

0:13:57.236,0:14:00.158
and women of color are the most[br]reliable voters for candidates

0:14:00.182,0:14:01.505
who support women's rights,

0:14:01.529,0:14:03.271
and we need to follow their lead --

0:14:03.295,0:14:08.542
(Applause and cheers)

0:14:08.566,0:14:11.045
Because their issues are our issues.

0:14:11.414,0:14:14.202
And as white women, we have to do more,

0:14:14.226,0:14:17.345
because racism and sexism and homophobia,

0:14:17.369,0:14:19.752
these are issues that affect all of us.

0:14:20.551,0:14:23.858
Number three: we've got to vote[br]in every single election.

0:14:23.882,0:14:25.033
Every election.

0:14:25.057,0:14:27.862
And we've got to make it easier[br]for folks to vote,

0:14:27.886,0:14:31.294
and we've got to make sure[br]that every single vote is counted, OK?

0:14:31.318,0:14:34.166
(Applause and cheers)

0:14:34.190,0:14:39.770
Because the barriers that exist[br]to voting in the United States,

0:14:39.794,0:14:42.375
they fall disproportionately on women --

0:14:42.399,0:14:44.722
women of color, women with low incomes,

0:14:44.746,0:14:47.630
women who are working[br]and trying to raise a family.

0:14:48.069,0:14:51.229
So we need to make it easier[br]for everyone to vote,

0:14:51.253,0:14:54.698
and we can start by making[br]Election Day a federal holiday

0:14:54.722,0:14:56.267
in the United States of America.

0:14:56.291,0:15:01.461
(Applause and cheers)

0:15:01.485,0:15:04.186
Number four: don't wait for instructions.

0:15:04.210,0:15:06.593
If you see a problem that needs fixing,

0:15:06.617,0:15:09.600
I think you're the one to do it, OK?

0:15:09.624,0:15:13.695
So start a new organization,[br]run for office.

0:15:13.719,0:15:18.329
Or maybe it's as simple as standing up[br]on the job in support of yourself

0:15:18.353,0:15:19.507
or your coworkers.

0:15:19.531,0:15:21.332
This is up to all of us.

0:15:21.654,0:15:26.131
And number five:[br]invest in women, all right?

0:15:26.155,0:15:27.303
(Applause)

0:15:27.327,0:15:30.975
Invest in women as candidates,[br]as changemakers, as leaders.

0:15:30.999,0:15:32.179
Just as an example,

0:15:32.203,0:15:35.097
in this last election cycle[br]in the United States,

0:15:35.121,0:15:39.578
women donated 100 million dollars more[br]to candidates and campaigns

0:15:39.602,0:15:41.470
than they had just two years ago,

0:15:41.494,0:15:43.866
and a record number of women won.

0:15:43.890,0:15:45.133
So just think about that.

0:15:45.157,0:15:46.837
(Applause and cheers)

0:15:46.861,0:15:51.942
So look, sometimes I think[br]that the challenges we face,

0:15:51.966,0:15:53.315
they seem overwhelming

0:15:53.339,0:15:56.985
and they seem like they almost[br]can never be solved,

0:15:57.009,0:16:00.142
but I think the problems[br]that seem the most intractable

0:16:00.166,0:16:02.436
are the ones that are most[br]important to work on.

0:16:03.420,0:16:07.238
And just because it hasn't been[br]figured out yet doesn't mean you won't.

0:16:07.675,0:16:09.832
After all, if women's work were easy,

0:16:09.856,0:16:12.342
someone else would have[br]already been doing it, right?

0:16:12.366,0:16:13.444
(Laughter)

0:16:13.468,0:16:17.207
But women around the globe,[br]they're on the move,

0:16:17.231,0:16:20.781
and they are taking strengths[br]and inspiration from each other.

0:16:20.805,0:16:23.780
They are doing things[br]they never could have imagined.

0:16:23.804,0:16:26.302
So if we could just take[br]the progress we have made

0:16:26.326,0:16:27.932
in joining the workforce,

0:16:27.956,0:16:29.431
in joining business,

0:16:29.455,0:16:31.504
in joining the educational system,

0:16:31.528,0:16:35.254
and actually channel that[br]into building true political power,

0:16:35.278,0:16:37.537
we will reshape this century,

0:16:37.561,0:16:39.693
because one of us can be ignored,

0:16:39.717,0:16:41.503
two of us can be dismissed,

0:16:41.527,0:16:43.637
but together, we're a movement,

0:16:43.661,0:16:44.905
and we're unstoppable.

0:16:45.355,0:16:46.563
Thank you.

0:16:46.587,0:16:48.373
(Applause and cheers)

0:16:48.397,0:16:49.555
Thank you.

0:16:49.579,0:16:50.880
(Applause)
