Female luminaries including Know Your Value founder Mika Brzezinski, Planned Parenthood founder Alexis McGill Johnson, political leader and voting rights activist Stacey Abrams and singer Alicia Keys were honored Thursday at the National Action Network’s annual “Women’s Empowerment Luncheon” in New York City.
Rev. Al Sharpton, president and founder of the National Action Network, a civil rights organization, said the purpose of the luncheon was not to celebrate women’s past achievements but also a call to action for future generations. Upon presenting Brzezinski with her award, Sharpton said, “This woman has made it clear, globally, the worth and value of women.
” Two-time Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams was also honored at the event. Leading up to the 2020 presidential campaign, Abrams was a major force behind a large voter registration effort in Georgia, which helped grow the African-American vote by half a million people.
