WOW2 is a thrice-monthly sister blog to This Week in the War on Women. This edition covers women and events from October 1 through October 11.
The next WOW2, for Mid-October,
will post on Saturday, October 17.
The purpose of WOW2 is to learn about and honor women of achievement, including many who’ve been ignored or marginalized in most of the history books, and to mark moments in women’s history. It also serves as a reference archive of women’s history. There are so many more phenomenal women than I ever dreamed of finding, and all too often their stories are almost unknown, even to feminists and scholars.
