What is the story of this is breaking the glass ceiling That was well chosen, I would say for spend when I get up in the morning is trying to figure out what's gonna happen, you know?
And none of this pin stuff would have happened if it hadn't been for Set him who say, I'll tell you what happened.
I went to the United Nations as ambassador, and it was after the Gulf War and I was an instructed ambassador and the cease fire had been translated into Siris of sanctions resolutions, and my instructions were to say perfectly terrible things about Saddam Hussein constantly, which he deserved.
He had invaded another country, and so all of a sudden a poem appeared in the papers in Baghdad, comparing me to many things, but among them an unparalleled serpent.
And so I happen to have a snake pin.
So I wore it when we talked about Iraq on when I went out to meet the press, they zeroed in, said, Why are you wearing that snake that I said, because Saddam Hussein compared me to an unparalleled serpent and then I thought, Well, this is fun.
So I went out and I bought a lot of pins that would, in fact reflect what I thought we were gonna do on any given day.
So that's how it all started.
So how large is the collection, then?
Pretty big.
It's now traveling at the moment it's in Indianapolis.
But it was at the Smithsonian, and it goes with a book that says, Read my pins.
So is this Ah, good idea.
Remember when you were the first woman secretary of state?
And there was a lot of conversation, always about what you were wearing, how you looked even think that happens to a lot of women, especially if they're the first in a position.
So I didn't feel about that the whole well.
It's pretty irritating, actually, because nobody ever describes what a man is wearing.
But people did pay attention to what clothes I had.
What was interesting was that before I went up to New York as U.
N ambassador, I talked to Jeane Kirkpatrick, who'd been ambassador before me, and she said, You've got to get rid of your professor clothes, go out and look like a diplomat, so that did give me a lot of opportunities to go shopping.
But still, there were all kinds of questions about Did you wear a hat?
How short was your skirt?
And one of the things if you remember, Condoleezza Rice was at some event and she wore boots and she got criticized over that and no guy ever gets criticized, but that's the least of it.
It is for all of us, men and women, finding our ways of defining our roles and on and doing them in ways that make a difference in the world and shape the future.
How how are you?
How did you handle that balance between being the tough diplomatic and strong voice of this country to the rest of the world?
And also how you felt about yourself as a mother, a grandmother nurturing and how did you handle?
But the interesting part was, I was asked what it was like to be the first woman secretary of state.
A few minutes after I'd been named and I said, Well, I've been a woman for 60 years, but I've only been secretary of state for a few minutes, So it evolved, but basically I love being a woman.
And so what happened?
And I think there are probably some people in the audience that will identify with this.
I went to my first meeting at the first at the U.
N.
And that's when this all started, because that is a very male organization.
And I'm sitting there there, 15 members of the Security Council.
So 14 men sat there staring at me, and I thought, Well, you know how we all are.
You want to get the feeling of the room and do people like me and will I really say something intelligent and all of a sudden like Well, wait a minute.
I am sitting behind a sign that says the United States, and if I don't speak today, then the voice of the United States will not be heard.
And it was the first time that I kind of had that feeling that I had to step out of myself in my normal kind of reluctant female mode and decide that I had to speak on behalf of our country.
And so that happened more at various times.
But I really think that there was a great advantage in many ways to being a woman.
I think we are better a lot at personal relationships on, then have the capability, obviously, of telling it like it is when it's necessary.
But I tell you, I have my youngest granddaughter when she turned seven last year, said to her mother, My daughter, So what's the big deal about Grandma Maddie being secretary of state?
Only girls are secretary of state because in her lifetime, that's that would be so.
What a change that as you travel now all over the world, which you do frequently how how do you assess this global narrative around the story of women and girls, where our way, I think we're slowly changing.
But obviously there are whole pockets in countries where nothing is different and therefore means that we have to remember that while many of us have had huge opportunities and pat you have been a real leader in your field is that there are a lot of movement that are not capable of worrying and taking care of themselves and understanding that women had to help other women and so what I have felt and and I have looked at this from a national security issue in our secretary state, I decided that women's issues had to be central to American foreign policy, not just because I'm a feminist, but because I believe that societies are better off when women are politically and economically empowered, that values are passed down, the health situation is better, Education is better.
There is greater economic prosperity.
So I think that it is ba hooves us, those of us that live in various countries, where we do have economic and political voice, that we need to help other women.
And I really dedicated myself to that both of the U.
N.
And then a secretary of state.
And did you get pushback from making that a central tenant of farm?
Some people, I think that they thought that it was kind of a soft issue.
The bottom line that I decided was actually women's issues are the hardest issues because they are the ones that have to do with life and death in so many aspects and because, as I said, it is really central to the way that we think about things now.
For instance, some of the wars that took place when I was in office.
Ah, lot of them.
The women were the main victims of.
For instance, When I started we there were wars in the Balkans.
The women in Bosnia were being raped.
We then managed to set up a war crimes tribunal to deal specifically with those kinds of issues.
And by the way, one of things that I did at that stage was I had just arrived at the U.
N.
And when I was there, there were 183 countries in the U.
N.
Now there, 192.
But it was one of the first times that I didn't have to cook lunch myself.
So I said to my assistant, Invite the other women permanent representatives and I thought when I'd get to my apartment that there'd be a lot of women there.
I get there in their six other women out of 183.
So the countries that had women representatives were Canada, Kazakhstan, Philippines, Trinidad, Tobago, Jamaica, Lichtenstein and me.
So being an American, I decided to set up a caucus and so way set it up.
And I we called ourselves the G seven and wear a girl's girl seven, and we lobbied on behalf of women's issues So we managed to get two women judges on this war crimes tribunal.
And then what happened was that they were able to declare that rape was a weapon of war, that it was against America theme.
When you look around the world and you see that in many cases, certainly in the Western world women are evolving into more leadership positions and and in even in other places, some barriers are being brought down.
But there's still so much violence still, so many problems.
And yet we hear there more women at the negotiating tables.
You were at those negotiating tables when they weren't.
There was maybe you one voice, maybe one or two others.
Do you believe?
And can you tell us why there is going to be a significant shift in things like violence and peace and conflict and resolution on a sustainable basis?
Well, I do think when there are more women that the tone of the conversation changes and also the goals of the conversation change.
But it doesn't mean that the whole world would be a lot better if it were totally run by women.
We you know, if you think that you've forgotten high school.
So the but the bottom line is that I think that there is a way when there are more women at the table, that there's a new attempt to develop some understanding.
So, for instance, what I did when I went to Burundi, we got to season Hutu women together to talk about some of the problems that had taken place in Rwanda on DSO I think, the capability of women to put themselves.
I think we're better about putting ourselves into the other guy's shoes and having more empathy.
I think it helps in terms of the support if there are other women in the room.
When I was secretary of state, there were only 13 other women foreign ministers, Um, and so it was nice when one of them would show up.
For instance, she is now the president of Finland.
Vittoria Halinen was the foreign minister of Finland and at a certain stage head of the European Union, and it was really terrific because one of things, I think you'll understand.
We went Teoh a meeting and the men in my delegation when I would say, Well, I feel we should do something about this and they wanted me to feel.
And so then Terry.
It was sitting across the table from me and all of a sudden, and we were talking about arms control and she said, Well, I feel we should do this and you know, my male colleagues kind of got it all of a sudden, but I think it really does help to have a critical mass of women in a series of foreign policy positions.
The other thing that I think is really important a lot of national security policy isn't just about foreign policy, but it's about budgets at military budgets and how the debts of countries work out.
So if you have women in a variety of foreign policy posts, they can support each other when there are budget decisions being made in their own countries.
So how do we get, you know, this balance we're looking for then in the world, more women's voices at the table, more men who believe that the balance is best?
Well, I think one of the things I'm, chairman of board of an organization called the National Democratic Institute that works to support women candidates.
I think that we need to help in other countries to train women to be in political office.
Teoh figure out how they can, in fact develop political voices.
I think we also need to be supportive when businesses are being created and just make sure that women help each other.
Now I have a saying that I feel very strongly about because I am of a certain age where when I started in my career, believe it or not, there were other women who criticized me.
Why aren't you in the carpool line?
Or aren't your Children suffering because you're not there all the time?
And I think we have a tendency to make each other feel guilty.
In fact, I think guilt is every woman's middle name.
And so I think what needs to happen is we need to help each other.
And my motto is that there's a special place in hell for women who don't help each other.
Secretary Albright.
I guess you'll be going to heaven.
