HYDE PARK, N.Y. — Chelsea Clinton will be among this year's five recipients of the Eleanor Roosevelt Val-Kill Medal, and her famous mother will be on hand to present the honor.

The medals will be bestowed during a ceremony starting at 11:30 a.m. Sunday, Oct. 13, at the Eleanor Roosevelt National Historic Site, 106 Val-Kill Park Road, Hyde Park.

The medal recipients are chosen by The Eleanor Roosevelt Center at Val-Kill, a nonprofit educational organization that pays tribute to the legacy of “The First Lady of the World.” Clinton will receive her medal from her mother, Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Hillary Clinton — a former first lady, U.S. senator, secretary of state and presidential candidate — was a Val-Kill Medal recipient in 1995.

Besides Chelsea Clinton, this year's medal recipients will be author and global journalist Zainab Salbi; Hyde Park residents and philanthropists John and Gloria Golden; and Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, president and CEO of Celebrity Crusies who was described in the medal announcement as a “gender equity champion.

The announcement said the five recipients are "change markers" who are being honored “for their unfailing dedication to promoting human rights and to challenging injustice."

Eleanor Roosevelt herself told Hillary to give the award to Chelsea.

Just what injustice has this spoiled white priviledged woman challenged?

This world is insane. You get an award for being related to a rich (and filthy corrupt) family.

Val-Kill?

Who did Chelsea kill?

Did she do it the Arkancide way?

Where was Chelsea when Epstein bought it?

“change markers” who are being honored “for their unfailing dedication to promoting human rights and to challenging injustice.”

This story should have began “Once upon a time”.

Mrs. Roosevelt saved my late father and his family during the depression when they were starving to death.

Typo. Should have been the “Shall-Kill” medal.

"for their unfailing dedication to promoting human rights and to challenging injustice."

And all that kind of stuff. For all the trillions of people (gender unspecific) who are certainly better off now than before all those pre-Chelsea times.

Akin to BHO and the Noble Peace Prize. That he was so egocentric he accepted it in such questionable circumstances told a lot about the man.
