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
