Women’s History
"The ongoing invisibility of women and girls is a serious issue for our country, and for the world. The invisibility of our history, heroes, stories, challenges, and success handicaps the future of all Americans, and it deeply affects our economy and our communities."--Megan Smith, U.S. Chief Technology OfficerWhat History Isn’t
“History isn’t about dates and places and wars. It’s about the people who fill the spaces between them.”

When my girlfriend started showing me around Manchester a couple years ago, I noticed Elm being a dead end to the South. Huh. Not long after, I noticed Elm being a dead end to the North, also. HUH! I’m a fortunate, well-traveled American and have seen and driven quite a few main streets in the downtown of cities. Usually you can drive on them both ways for perhaps hours or even days! But Manchester’s downtown main Street is a dead end on both ends?! Whaaaat?! I’ll never stop finding that amusing!
