Shirley Chisholm was a trailblazer in American politics who not only championed racial and gender equality, but also advocated for the rights of the underserved across the U.S. and internationally.
In celebration of what would be Shirley’s 100th birthday, help us honor her work and legacy by asking your representatives to award her a Congressional Gold Medal, which is the highest expression of national gratitude for distinguished service and achievements.
By enshrining her legacy in key institutions, current and future generations can learn from her leadership.
