Listen in to a powerful conversation with Namita Luthra, women's rights advocate. We spoke one week after the United States Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade. Ms. Luthra encourages us to be undeterred, and draws strength from generations of women who advocated to advance women's suffrage. Suffragists faced daunting challenges and tremendous setbacks, but continued undeterred.

Ms. Luthra serves on the Board of Directors of Monumental Women, the President’s Council of the New York Hall of Science, and the Advisory Board of LexSeeHer, a Lexington, MA nonprofit. She served on the Board of Directors of Sakhi for South Asian Women. For years, Ms. Luthra was a senior staff attorney at the ACLU Women’s Rights Project working on litigation, advocacy, and public education to advance the rights of women and girls. There, she co-authored a book called The Rights of Women and successfully litigated gender discrimination jury trials in federal court. Before that Ms. Luthra was a staff attorney at the Office of the Appellate Defender representing indigent clients and a Fellow at the ACLU National Legal Department.
