The very first WOW2 ran on September 19, 2015, over 8 years ago. It's been quite a ride, and became a much bigger project than I ever could have dreamed. But for the past year, due to space constraints, I have been editing out stories that I spent a lot of time finding, while adding very few new entries.
Since my goal has always been to tell all the stories I could find of the brave and resourceful women who have broken down barriers and fought for women’s rights from all around the world, this has been frustrating, to say the least.
So, it’s time for me wrap up my search for all the missing pages of Women’s History. Next week’s WOW2 will close the year and the series.
To all who have read and enthusiastically supported these posts, a truly heart-felt THANK YOU.
To my co-conspirators, especially libera nos, WOW2 would have faded out some time ago without all of your enthusiasm and unflagging support. THANK YOU.
Today’s news is tomorrow’s history. It has been my honor to post WOW2 under the banner of This Week in the War On Women.
