You can visit monuments to America’s most significant women virtually during Women’s History Month.
Below are some of the sites:
Boston Women’s Heritage Trail - Boston
A series of walking tours, this trail paves the way for discovering four centuries of Bostonian women. More than 400 ladies are linked to locations where they’ve lived, worked or participated in various causes and actions. Below is a video of Road to the Vote: Boston Women’s Suffrage Trail:
Eleanor Roosevelt Monument - Riverside Park, New York City
Eleanor Roosevelt National Historic Site - Hyde Park, New York
Harriet Tubman National Historical Park & Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Park
National First Ladies’ Library | First Ladies National Historic Site - Canton, Ohio
In 1994, Mary Regula led a campaign to establish a library to research and show acknowledgment of the significant role that the first ladies to U.S. presidents played. Regula recruited 13 local women activists and reached out to first lady Hillary Clinton for help. Four years later, the library opened within the Saxton McKinley house; it was the childhood home of first lady Ida McKinley, and where she and President William McKinley lived for many years.
