This is our tentative schedule thus far. I belong to the 3-person core IWD Committee. I'm super excited to be bringing educational and diverse women's voices to the radio for a fantastic day!
In addition to the schedule below, several 5-Minute Cape Cod Women’s History Segments from Susan Lindquist will be plugged in. Women are underrepresented in every sector of our society, in every institution. From government to the music industry, there is a huge dearth. The climate for women in those places is largely toxic and exploitative. In our small way we hope to bring women's history and stories to the forefront, because the more we are seen and heard, the more empowered we become, and the greater personal and societal changes can be made. Women's stories and history is systematically suppressed and buried in our cultural narrative.
