\nThe Steinem Sisters C ollection is a feminist collection that explores the lives and ac hievements of women. Created to honor Gloria Steinem\, the collection cham pions the historical\, cultural and political contribution of women\; and strives to provide a welcoming space for women of all walks of life to sha re their truths. The types of materials we collect are first and foremost &ldquo\;feminist materials&rdquo\;- which are those materials that uphold women&rsquo\;s rights and interests in defining and promoting political\, economic\, personal and social equality of the sexes. This collection was made possible due to a generous donation by The Steinem&rsquo\;s Sisters C ollective. \;
