This is a USHR first with a podcast specifically on a First Lady. The longest sitting First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt was very involved in her husband's presidency. We get into all of the below and then some.

She held regular press conferences as First Lady in The White House and only allowed female reporters as they were barred from the President’s press conferences.

Roosevelt began a syndicated newspaper column, called “My Day.”

She was a supporter of Civil Rights. In 1943, she joined the NAACP.

She Visited the troops overseas during WWII and would wear her red cross uniform.

In 1945, Eleanor Roosevelt was appointed by President Harry S. Truman to the first United Nations delegation, the only woman among the delegates.

There is always more to learn, talk to you soon!
