Welcome, michelle king. Author of the fix. Guest hi. Thank you for having me. Host its a pleasure to have you here. This is such an important book because its not just about the problems that women face in the workplace. Its so focused on solutions, and i love your key insight which is that we tend to give advice to women, a lot of books and con friends for women, telling them what they need to do and how they need to change. We need to lean in, we need negotiate more, and if were too nice well never get the corner office. What you point out is the truth is that women actually dont need fixing. Were not the ones that are broken. What is broken is the workplace, and as we know, workplaces were designed by men, for men, when women try to act like men, it has not work out very well for us. And i love how you put it. You say we need to call a timeout on the women fixing epidemic. And as you point out, of course, michelle, gender equality is not just about women. Your book, the fix, i is no

Thank you again for joining us here for black History Month. Now, the association for the study of africanamerican life and history was founded by dr. Carter godwin woodson. It started as negro history week and now of course has been expanded to black History Month. We would like to thank our sponsors. They include the prince georges truth branch, usa today, and the law and policy group. We would also like to thank all of those people who make black history happen all year round. The year 2019 is special for many reasons, and we will explore those reasons in two parts. Part one will talk about the theme for black History Month this year, and that is black migrations. Our press event also includes a panel of scholars who enlightened this occasion with their expertise on the 400 years of africanamerican perseverance and resilience triggered from that arrival of 20 africans in 1619. But first, if we have her here, were looking for the president of the National Press club, Allison Fitzgera
