"Without a Whisper" Film Discussion

Hosted by: CRC Anthropology Professor Anastasia Panagakos & CRC History Professor Diana Reed

March 25 at 3 PM

Without a Whisper uncovers the hidden history and profound influence Indigenous women had on the beginnings of the women’s rights movement in the United States. Before the first women’s rights convention in Seneca Falls in 1848, European colonial women lacked even the most basic rights, while Haudenosaunee women had a potent political and

spiritual voice and authority in all aspects of their lives. The contact that the early suffragists had with Haudenosaunee women in New York state shaped their thinking and had a vital impact on their struggle for equality, that is taken for granted today. The film follows Mohawk Bear Clan Mother Louise Herne and Professor Sally Roesch Wagner as they seek to correct the historical narrative about the origins of women’s rights in the United States. Watch “Without a Whisper” ahead of time and then join us on March 25 for a discussion.
