Lecturer: Dr. Elizabeth Masarik, PhD, The State College at Brockport
Born in Laredo, TX to a political family, Jovita organized La Liga Feminil in 1911 to push for women’s rights. Idar was an advocate for women’s suffrage and a champion of children and the poor. During the Mexican Revolution she traveled throughout Mexico with Carranza forces and formed La Cruz Blanca (the White Cross) to nurse the wounded. Join Dr. Elizabeth Garner Masarik for an engaging discussion of this overshadowed feminist icon.
