“Men have the benefit of knowing their history for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. They can draw inspiration, courage and ingenuity from their forefathers and build on that foundation towards a brighter future.
Women don’t have that advantage. As one historian told me — every generation of women has to recreate the wheel because they don’t know about their past.”
