Today in the New York Times and article was released about the possibility of a museum being created solely about the History of Women (The article can be found here). The new museum would be located in Washington D.C. near the National Mall. The article states that in the past the house has proposed bills that would lead to the creation of a museum on the history of women but it has never had nearly enough support to be passed. Now it is seeming like the odds may be in the favor of the mall.
I feel that the fact that today we can finally come this close to creating a museum for women shows immense growth in the United States of America. Also the fact that America has become supportive enough of women in recent history that enough feats have been accomplished by them to open a museum solely for that also shows tremendous growth. Do you think the museum will end up opening? How do you think this portrays what the future of the United States in regards to women will look like?
