The Moth shares feminist stories at St. Thomas for Women’s History Month

The Luann Dummer Center for Women welcomed three feminist-forward speakers from The Moth to celebrate Women’s History Month at the University of St. Thomas on March 13 in the O’Shaughnessy Educational Center auditorium.

With help from The Moth, three women shared personal stories regarding their experiences with feminism with St. Thomas students, faculty and community members.
