A good message from Hillary Clinton to the MAKERS Conference this week.
In her video message, she remained confident in women’s continued progress:
“Despite all the challenges we face, I remain convinced that, yes, the future is female,” Clinton said in the video. “Just look at the amazing energy we saw last month as women organized a march that galvanized millions of people all over our country and across the world.”
“We need strong women to step up and speak out. We need you to dare greatly and lead boldly,” she added. “So please, set an example for every woman and girl out there who’s worried about what the future holds, and wonders whether our rights, opportunities, and values will endure. And remember, you are the heroes and history-makers, the glass ceiling breakers of the future.”

“As I’ve said before, I’ll say again: Never doubt that you are valuable and powerful and deserving of every change and opportunity in the world,” she said.
TPM: 'Yes, The Future Is Female,' Clinton Says In First Post-Inaugural Message
She was the first, but will not be the last, woman nominated by a major political party for president, and she won the popular vote. Hilary helped women progress, even if she fell short at the end.
There will be another, maybe in 2020, and that glass ceiling will break.
