March is National Women’s History Month

How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes!- Maya Angelou, poet

I love history.  We all know the stories of major characters in U.S. history and they are often white men.  But do we know the stories of the women, people of color, indigenous peoples and immigrants who also contributed to the founding and growth of our nation?

During March in honor of Women’s History Month we will have quotes from women, some famous and some not so much, who have contributed in their own way to our heritage as Americans.
