Recordist's notes

we are in the Lusaka National Museum... on invitation of Mulenga Kapwepwe, i had just been able to join a discussion of a resourceful group of women, among them artists, bloggers, writers, an architect, a lawyer…; they belong to a Cooperative of ten women who are the makers and movers of what is and will be the Museum of Women’s History in Zambia. After the meeting, I managed to keep Mulenga and Samba Yonga, the co-founders of the Women’s History Museum for just about long enough to tell us how this idea and organisation was born, what’s their mission and plans and how they will go about realizing their ambitious plans of inserting women’s achievements into to the gaping mainstream of history… (amazing work has been done since; please see their website for more) https://www.whmzambia.org/ archived at https://archive.org/details/SambaAndMulengaIntroduceTheWomensHistoryMuseumZambia
