Johnetta Cole moderated a panel discussion with three other women about their contributions to Civil Rights movement. The panelists also responded to questions from members of the audience. Kathleen Cleaver served as the communications secretary of the Black Panther Party from 1967-1971. Charlayne Hunter-Gault was the first black woman to graduate from the University of Georgia in 1962.
