BC Voices tells the stories of women facing challenges and driving change for full equality from America’s founding to today. BC Voices harnesses the power of historical narratives and personal storytelling to amplify American women’s fight for economic, political and social power, historically and today. Conversations among multiple generations of women illuminate the personal impact in women’s lives of having, and the consequences of not having, economic independence, voting rights, gender equity, reproductive freedom, affirmative action, and freedom from sexual harassment. Through an online docuseries, Stand UP, Speak OUT: The Personal Politics of Women’s Rights, two documentary shorts, and an oral history collection, BC Voices seeks to motivate audiences of all genders to preserve women’s hard-won rights and to join the ongoing struggle for full gender equity.
