'Each time a girl opens a book and reads a womanless history, she learns she is worth less.' ~ Myra Pollack Sadker

'Why Womens History?  History helps us learn who we are, but when we don't know our own history, our power and dreams are immediately diminished.  Multicultural American women are overlooked in most mainstream approaches to U.S. history, so the National Women's History Project champions their accomplishments and leads the drive to write women back into history.  Recognizing the achievements of women in all facets of life – science, community, government, literature, art, sports, medicine – has a huge impact on the development of self-respect and new opportunities for girls and young women.'

In 2019, the “National Women’s History Project” became the “National Women’s History Alliance.”
