HISTORY describes Women’s History Month as a time to “reflect on the often-overlooked contributions of women to United States history.” Celebrating women in all areas of life: art, science, literature, and social justice (just to name a few), Women’s History Month has been recognized annually since 1987. As we welcome March, this week, we share resources about a few inspiring women from United States history.
