Jewish feminists are passing away or clearing out their attics. A new scholarship of Jewish women is developing. We're at a turning point. A lot of people think the work is done making the world more egalitarian. But there's lots more work to do in terms of the glass ceiling, equitable policies and family leave. The challenge now is to move forward, to see how we can continue feminist change. |
One of the challenges for us in creating this exhibit was determining how to create the story of a movement from the stories of individuals. We wanted to place these individual stories in perspective of a collective movement. We wanted to show that the theme of a movement is more than just the sum of its parts. |
