Description: This project began when the authors gathered photographs on women's history for International Women's Day in 1972. They began to realize how little they knew about their own history, and that what they did know was often colored by the myths and assumptions which have been used to keep women "in their place." The ideas promoted by the media, schools, government, and churches played a part in the oppression of women. The authors show women in the continual struggle against oppression and their hope is to liberate themselves from the whole system of exploitation.
