“Opening the Way” brings together the little-known women’s history of the space between Chambers and Wall Streets in a walking tour of downtown Manhattan. Written by former New York Times editor Betsy Wade and founder of the Columbia Journalism Review James Boylan and sponsored by Women’s eNews, it honors 21 diverse women suffragists, abolitionists, journalists, and fierce thinkers who changed both New York City and the nation. It consists of guided, self-led, and interactive tours, multimedia add-ons, and more.
This interactive component of the walk includes contemporary women leaders recording quotes of the historical women whose sites we visit. You can also listen to these recordings by dialing (917) 791-5004 and entering one of the 21 stops. For more information, please visit www.womensenews.org/OpeningtheWay. Thank you and enjoy!
