Thank you for that addition. There are hundreds of examples like that. Where women have been completely omitted from recognition or had it stolen from them. Even when receiving the patent, we still don't learn about them in history. We are only taught about what men have done

I left school in the 70's , but was still taught about Marie Curie, Emily Pankhurst, Mary Queen of Scots, Emily Bronte....the list goes on........so not entirely true to be fair.

Or Anne Sullivan? Aged 5, Sullivan contracted  trachoma, an eye disease which left her blind without reading or writing skills. She received her education as a student of the Perkins School for the Blind & became a teacher to Helen Keller when she was 20 Who talks about her?

Like honestly. Imagine how empowered young women and girls would be if they learned early on about all these millions of kick ass women? Every lesson teaching everyone that women matter That women have a place in history That women have made massive differences That women can!

Brilliant addition. Thank you x
