2. Eleanor Roosevelt || The Struggle for Human Rights
"We the people of the United Nations determined...to reaffirm faith in
fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the
equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small, and...to promote
social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom." This reflects the
basic premise of the Charter that the peace and security of mankind are dependent
on mutual respect for the rights and freedoms of all.

5. Core 77 || Drinking Glass
“Shockingly, some 400,000 women are rendered unconscious and subsequently
raped each year after unwittingly ingesting GHB, Rohypnol or Ketamine,
colloquially known as ‘date rape drugs.’” This company created a variety of
drinkware that can detect the drugs and change color to warn the drinker.

6. Design Awards || Meet the New Hillary Clinton
While women in an earlier era might have been reluctant to discuss their family
lives, fearing voters would not take them seriously as candidates (Bill and Hillary
Clinton decades ago started showing more photos of their daughter, Chelsea,
when they learned many people didn't even know they had a daughter), modern
female candidates are better off showing their whole selves, experts say.

7. TED Talk || Jackson Katz
Violence against women - it’s a men’s issue
“Domestic violence and sexual abuse
are often called "women's issues."
But in this bold, blunt talk, Jackson
Katz points out that these are
intrinsically men's issues -- and
shows how these violent behaviors
are tied to definitions of manhood. A
clarion call for us all -- women and
men -- to call out unacceptable
behavior and be leaders of change.”
