Aug 20, 2008 – Womens Power with Max Dashu
PWG is hosting a DVD screening of Women s Power and a fundraiser for the Suppressed Histories Archives. Womens Power is an eye-opening documentary about women whose role in history has been either minimized or deleted from standard history books. Since 1970, Max Dashu has researched and photographed images of women in all walks of life such as chiefs, priestesses, medicine women, architects, doctors, warriors, and scientists. She has created and shown this slideshow presentation, which has evolved through out the years, to groups, community centers and Universities. For more information on Suppressed Histories Archives, the DVD and Max Dashu visit www.suppressedhistories.net
DVD will be available for sale. Tickets: $5-$15, (proceeds go to Suppressed Histories Archives) No one turned away for lack of funds.

Rub a dub dub three maids in a tub. Who do you think we see. The butcher, the baker, and the candle stick maker. And they all came out to PWG.
Women today have many careers that span the alphabet from Architects to Zoologist. PWG would like to showcase 10 lesbian owned businesses or lesbians in business. Participants will have 10 minutes to share the challenges and joys of their profession. To add your name to the evenings rooster contact Sandy T. satuttle@mindspring.com.
