“Geraldine Ferraro was a trailblazer who left a legacy of action, commitment, compassion, and concern. For the people of Queens, though, she was not just a national figure but one who cared and gave so much to the local community she called home.”
– Dr. Gempesaw, President, St. John’s University

“We should mark the 30th anniversary of Ferraro’s selection with a renewed sense of what it meant for society. It undoubtedly helped shape a younger generation of women who were interested in politics. But it also made us rethink how the public could be effectively represented at all levels of American politics.”
