Voices That Shaped New York City
Celebrate America 250.
Behind New York City’s famous skyline is another story – one shaped by women who led movements, challenged systems, built communities, and reimagined what was possible. But their names are rarely found on plaques or monuments. As America celebrates 250 years, experience the city through a new perspective inspired by the stories of these fearless women. In partnership with She Shapes History, discover the overlooked stories of the women who helped define New York City.
