#TBT: “Women’s Rights are Human Rights”

On September 5, 1995, Hillary Rodham Clinton gave one of her most powerful speeches as First Lady. She was a featured speaker at the UN’s Fourth Women’s Conference in Beijing, China. During the speech, Clinton famously said “let it be that human rights are human rights are women’s rights and women’s rights are human rights.” Clinton has continued to fight for women’s rights as Senator, Secretary of State, and now a candidate for President of the United States.
