Description
Max Dashu founded the Suppressed Histories Archives in 1970 to research and document global women's history. She built a collection of 15,000 slides and 30,000 digital images, and has created 150 visual talks on female cultural heritages from the most ancient times to the present. She is internationally known for her expertise on ancient Goddess iconography; matricultures and female spheres of power; patriarchy and allied systems of domination; medicine women, female shamans, witches—and the witch hunts. http://www.suppressedhistories.net
