EVENT DETAILS

With the rise of the #MeToo movement, women around the globe are breaking the rules—both by speaking out about their experiences and insisting that they are accurately preserved for posterity. In response, many museums and historic sites are reevaluating the vital role they can play in collecting and sharing these often-overlooked stories.

Two of America's most important feminist voices have written books grappling with the power of women's anger. Brittney Cooper's Eloquent Rage: A Black Feminist Discovers Her Superpower and Rebecca Traister's Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women's Anger take women's fury seriously as a political response and force for change. They place women's rage in historical context, and show how such anger has been trivialized or weaponized to undermine women.
