Let's Talk New Mexico 3/18 8am: March is Women’s History Month, and we are taking a look at how the suffrage movement here in New Mexico continues to inspire activists today
On the next Let’s Talk New Mexico, we’re discussing the role women have played in New Mexico's history, and how women today continue to strive to break the glass ceiling.

How can we use this month to move forward to a more equitable future? Email letstalk@kunm.org or call in live during the show — Thursday morning at 8 on 89.9 KUNM.
