Great.

I am conscious of the time. In Professor Ashe's opinion, how significant is a woman's educational experience to her participation in these discussions? Some people from the North who come to the South to study often find it more difficult to have those constitutional and political discussions here than they would at home. When they are on their own turf, it is easier. Has Professor Ashe heard similar perspectives previously? Has she any ideas as to how communities or educational institutions and policymakers here can encourage that meaningful engagement, particularly for women?
