A Women’s History Squad
Selected by:
Wonder Media
This Women’s History Month, we’re shifting focus away from the history-makers, and instead towards the patchwork of women’s lives and identities that, too, create our history. Every little moment in this crazy existence is a seed of creation, and the relationships we share, and the conversations we have are no less valuable than the thrusts of great moments. This week we trace dialogues between women from a panoply of backgrounds, to form a web of interconnected women, celebrating their manifold beauty throughout.
