The National Women’s History Alliance‘s 2024 theme is “Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.”

The theme recognizes that women throughout the country need to work toward eliminating bias and discrimination from their lives and institutions for a better future.

This year, the PA History Society selected a handful of biographies for Women’s History Month that demonstrate those who made history by making a difference, specifically with DEI initiatives in the profession and in their communities.

Visit our online exhibit to uncover a selection of inspiring stories from the Society’s oral history and biography collections. Browse the web pages of these collections to discover even more remarkable women!
