Living Life: Stories of Women, Men, and Changing Roles in the 20th Century

For the last 30 years, at least three generations of women and men have benefited from gender equity legislation and programs. The importance and impact of this work, however, is often invisible to more recent generations who may take these rights for granted. Living Life is recording the voices and experiences of the pioneers who, taking the lessons of earlier women’s struggles to heart and drawing from the civil rights movement, built the foundation for the gains women and men have made over the last 30 years.
