Abstract:

The North Carolina Museum of History and Division of Archives and History staff began planning an exhibit in 1984 to highlight the history of North Carolina women. This exhibit, titled \"The Task That Is Ours,\" would cover the topic for the last 400 years and be the hallmark of the North Carolina Museum of History's new building. Only one previous exhibit promoted the history of one woman, Georgia Thompson Broadwick, a female parachutist in the early 20th-century.
