Their innovative and imaginative approach to archival research explores critical themes such as coalition-building, equity, and intersectionality, providing an indispensable resource for educators, researchers, students, and advocates. Framed within a unique and evocative metaphorical structure, this book is a compelling call to action for systemic change in art education and beyond."" - Doug Blandy, Professor Emeritus, College of Design, Folklore, and Public Culture at the University of Oregon, USA ""The authors of this timely publication share insights, wisdom, and hard-earned victories carefully mined from the Women’s Caucus archives. We are indebted to them for this rich presentation of aspirations held, challenges faced, and advancements celebrated by the NAEA Women’s Caucus and its broadening coalition. The moving stream of archival discoveries shared reflects the light of visionary activism strengthened by a strong community committed to advancing the equity, visibility, and opportunities of diverse women and all marginalized people. Illuminating stories and interviews remind us of both challenging undercurrents of oppression and positive professional gains.
