鈥淎 lot of times women were the power behind the throne, so they never got documented.鈥�

Women are often missing from historical records, their voices are not heard, their roles in society reduced to the background of a story. This is something that the Women鈥檚 History Museum of Zambia is trying to re-balance. Through examining how women often took a leadership role in indigenous culture, the founders of the museum, Samba Yonga and Mulenga Kapwepwe, are re-discovering the importance and power of women. And they say this process illustrates how long-lost cultural traditions have a relevance for women today.
