WOW2 is a four-times-a-month sister blog to This Week in the War on Women. This edition covers trailblazing women and events from April 9 through April 16.
The next WOW2 edition will post
on Saturday, April 16, 2022.
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.
April is Black Women’s History Month
and National Poetry Month
THIS WEEK IN THE WAR ON WOMEN

catch up on the latest dispatches from the frontlines.
