Women's History and Women's Rights
We Did It For You! Women's Journey Through History is the story of how women got their rights in America, told by the women who were there. We've been touring it through California for the last two years. A video about the play
The musical is a call to action through a tour of the past and a wonderful way to help generate awareness and start conversations about:
- Voter registration
- Anti-discrimination
- Gender equality issues
- Violence against women
- Attacks on our constitutional rights
- Women in leadership
- Self-esteem
- Empowerment
Our goal for We Did It For You! is to encourage women, young and old, to take action and participate in politics, business, and civil rights, to bring about a more balanced society.
