This evening the City of West Hollywood commemorated the 88th anniversary of the 19th amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America, which granted women the right to vote. Keynote speaker, Zoe Ann Nicholson read excerpts from her book, The Hungry Heart, and encouraged a lively discussion. She concluded with a marvelous quote: "If you are a long term activist, redouble your commitment. Your service will make a difference, in both the world and in your heart. If you are not sure where to begin, pick one thing you feel passionate about. Do one bold thing for another woman or girl." Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney (D-NY)
