[ONLINE] - More than Ready

Even though we are engaged in social distancing, that doesn't mean we can't have a little fun...

Join us for this re-imagined virtual book event!

A Virtual Cocktail Party to discuss More than Ready, Be Strong, and Be You...And Other Lessons for Women of Color on the Rise, with Anne-Marie Slaughter, Cecilia Muñoz and Tyra Mariani (Bring your Own Cocktail!).

Join us for a very special book event as we launch More than Ready: Be Strong and Be You . . . and Other Lessons for Women of Color on the Rise, by New America Vice President Cecilia Muñoz. Cecilia is New America’s Vice President for Public Interest Technology and Local Initiatives, and she was the first Latina to lead the White House Domestic Policy Council under President Obama.

Women of color today are contributing to an unprecedented wave of "firsts"—whether it's the first in a family to attend college, the first to serve as CEO of a Fortune 500 company, or the first in public office to serve in Congress from their state, women of color are reaching new heights of influence. New America CEO Anne-Marie Slaughter and President Tyra Mariani, who have achieved some firsts of their own, will join Cecilia in an intimate conversation that builds on the lessons in More Than Ready.

Join Cecilia, Tyra, and Anne-Marie for an intimate conversation about how women, especially women of color, work through fear, overcome doubt and face down detractors, without compromising who they are.

Copies of More than Ready are available for purchase here from our bookselling partner, Solid State Books.
