Bryn Mawr Voices for Choices Displays Women's History

Starting the week of March 22nd, the Bryn Mawr Voices for Choice set up a Women's History Month display in their Campus Center. Group President Elisha Colter explains, "The idea is to have a big visual to highlight some of the amazing things women in America have accomplished over the last hundred years. In addition to the big names and events, we're really focusing on women who have been largely ignored by the history books. The plan as of now is to devote most of the display to women's accomplishments, then at the end include the setbacks we're facing now. I really want to get women here thinking about how hard women before us had to fight to win the rights we take for granted and are at risk of losing. After the display, we're hosting a discussion on what people thought of the display, what rights are in danger now, why women are excluded from history, and so on."
