Let’s hear it for women who make change happen!
March is Women’s History Month and the 2024 theme is “Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.”
The Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture celebrates Black women entrepreneurs the entire month of March on the museum’s social media channels @NMAAHC. And in Hyde Park, N.Y., two miles from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s home, you can visit Eleanor Roosevelt’s home at Val-Kill, preserved as a National Historic Site. She is the only first lady with her own national park site. An active partner in FDR’s political career, she became an important Democratic Party leader and humanitarian in her own right after his death.
In Denver, visit the Center for Colorado Women’s History that focuses on the experiences of women who helped build Colorado. Another good bet in Denver is the Molly Brown House Museum. Molly Brown famously became “the unsinkable Molly Brown” when she survived the sinking of the Titanic. What is less well- known is that she helped the survivors of that tragedy, spoke out for miners’ and women’s rights, and worked on relief efforts in France during World War I.
