Museums & Institutions - Washington, District of Columbia, United States
The American story is rarely told in its full complexity. In our nation's schools, textbooks, museums, public parks, holidays, historic celebrations and even postage stamps, the accomplishments and experiences of America's women are significantly under-represented. This under-representation affects not only our modern comprehension of women's experiences and their historical context, but also leaves us with an incomplete understanding of the intricate dynamics of our nation's history in general, thereby impacting our entire population, men and women alike.The Congressional Commission on the study of a potential American Museum of Women's History has been tasked to develop an independent, bi-partisan plan that highlights these themes and stories, make recommendations on a future museum's location in our nation's capital, and contemplates how it might be financed, operated, and maintained. The Commission will present a report to Congress that answers these questions in the most inclusive, feasible, and thorough way possible.
