The goal of WomensActivism.NYC is to create a permanent New York City archive of stories about women from around the globe who have made a difference. The women described in the archive may be famous or largely unknown. They may have lived in the past or may still be working today. The only requirements are: they must be woman-identified and they must have contributed to making change in some way.
This initiative began in 2015 as part of a celebration of women’s activism connected to the Suffrage Centennial. The NYC Department of Records and Information Services created WomensActivism.NYC to honor the anniversary of women winning the right to vote in New York State in 1917 and in the United States in 1920. We’re writing everyday extraordinary women into #herstory. Share a story.
