SUMMARY:Global Conversations ST. PAUL: Women Warriors
DESCRIPTION:From Vikings and African queens to cross-dressing military doctors and World War II Russian fighter pilots\, there are incredible stories of women for whom battle was not a metaphor. The woman warrior has been cast as an anomaly — Joan of Arc\, not GI Jane. But women\, it turns out\, have always gone to war. \nJoin us for a conversation with author Pamela D. Toler as she discusses her new book\, “Women Warriors: An Unexpected History\,” and highlights the many women throughout world history who stepped out of their traditional female roles to take on other identities. The program will include a Q&A session with Pamela. \nAbout the Speaker\nArmed with a Ph.D. in history\, a well-thumbed deck of library cards\, and a large bump of curiosity\, author\, speaker\, and historian\, Pamela D. Toler translates history for a popular audience. She goes beyond the familiar boundaries of American history to tell stories from other parts of the world as well as history from the other side of the battlefield\, the gender line\, or the color bar. Pamela is the author of eight books of popular history for children and adults. Her work has appeared in Aramco World\, Calliope\, History Channel Magazine\, MHQ: The Quarterly Journal of Military History and Time.com. \nGlobal Conversations in St. Paul is presented in partnership with Landmark Center.

SUMMARY:Global Social with 2020 International Woman of Courage
DESCRIPTION:For members and their guests only. \nGlobal Minnesota is proud to host Susanna Liew from Malaysia\, a recipient of the 2020 U.S. Secretary of State’s International Women of Courage Award. \nEstablished in 2007\, the annual U.S. Secretary of State’s International Women of Courage Award honors women around the globe who have exemplified exceptional courage and leadership in advocating for human rights\, women’s equality\, and social progress\, often at great personal risk. This is the only U.S. Department of State award that pays tribute to emerging women leaders worldwide. \nJoin us at KNOCK\, Inc. in Minneapolis for the opportunity to meet Susanna and learn about the change she is implementing across the globe.  \nThe evening includes complimentary hors d’oeuvres and beverages. Parking lots are available on Glenwood Ave. (in front of KNOCK\, Inc.) and around the corner on Girard Ave. N. \nAbout Susanna\nFollowing the February 2017 abduction of her husband\, Christian pastor Raymond Koh\, allegedly by state agents\, Susanna Liew has fought on behalf of members of religious minorities who disappeared in Malaysia under similar circumstances or who faced persecution for their beliefs. Susanna actively pursued justice for her husband and others during the Malaysian Human Rights Commission’s (SUHAKAM) 2018-19 public inquiry into enforced disappearances and continues to push the government to investigate these cases and prosecute those responsible. Despite police harassment and death threats\, she continues to advocate for her husband and others\, not because of her faith or theirs\, but because of their rights as Malaysians. Susanna and Raymond founded Hope Community in 2004\, a nonprofit organization that works with the poor\, needy\, and marginalized. She previously served as a school principal and educator. \nPresented in partnership with KNOCK\, Inc.
