Users can move forward and backward in time––like a Google Earth for learning––exploring each woman's work, publications, and networks of relationships. Instead of historical data about women being relegated to a handful of written pages––where it risks being lost, yet again, in the traditional historical narrative––users step inside the data, into a new dimension of learning and knowing historical women. A searchable digital platform connects modern women with their mostly unknown foremothers who were female groundbreakers of the past. The project is still in its early stages.

Manipur, an ancient Kingdom, had a composite traditional system of education in the field of warfare, martial arts, games and sports, culture and many other schools of thought training the people in various professional activities in ancient forms. The people have carried down this legacy of quest for knowledge and civilized existence since time immemorial. Ancient works of knowledge in the original scripts of Manipur stand as testimony to the nurturing of the idea of a University in the minds of our forefathers and foremothers. The state has celebrated the tradition of a purely intellectual pursuit which conserves the original ethos of the land and its people while receptive with an open mind to change in course of time.

Between 1964 and 1974, Zendejas served as president of the Institute of Friendship and Cultural Exchange Mexico-USSR and was honored the year following her resignation with a medal from the USSR in recognition her work to build friendship and cultural exchange between the two countries. By the time that the second wave of Mexican Feminism began to emerge in 1968, the women of Zendejas' generation were seen as out of step with the student movement, the emerging countercultural movement and the sexual revolution. Young feminists who wanted immediate action, felt that their foremothers had not done enough to transform society. Resenting that characterization, Zendejas would spend the next thirty years researching and writing the history of women's contributions in Mexico.

This was one of reasons why many Swedish family of high nobility got also one or more Finnish foremothers (a phenomenon very rare in medieval centuries when already geography was a sort of obstacle). Finnish nobles very often moved to other parts of the realm, to have an office in military or in government. Count Axel Oxenstierna, 1st Count of Södermöre, the Lord High Chancellor of Sweden, was the architect of the Instrument of Government of 1634, which laid the foundation of modern Sweden, and in extension that of Finland. It secured that all government appointments had to be filled by candidates from the nobility, a move which helped to mobilize support for, rather than opposition against, a centralized national government.

"Around 150 men contributed to the great encyclopedia of the Enlightenment, Walker pointed out, but no women did. The very first version of Encyclopædia Britannica, written between 1768 and 1771, featured 39 pages on curing disease in horses, and three words on woman: 'female of man'." In particular, Wikipedia suffers from an age-old sexist tendency, that of defining a woman by her relationship status with a man. “The pages that do exist about notable women are more likely to mention their gender and relationship status than articles about men.” “There needs to be a conscious collaborative determination by women, including girls, that we want to know about women of the past, we want to have access to our foremothers, and that we want to revise history,” Walker said. “Every time a woman is denied the full weight of what she has achieved, it is a loss for all of us,” Walker said.

Levy criticized the pornographic video series Girls Gone Wild after she followed its camera crew for three days, interviewed both the makers of the series and the women who appeared on the videos, and commented on the series' concept and the debauchery she was witnessing. Many of the young women Levy spoke with believed that bawdy and liberated were synonymous. Levy's experiences amid Girls Gone Wild appear again in Female Chauvinist Pigs, in which she attempts to explain "why young women today are embracing raunchy aspects of our culture that would likely have caused their feminist foremothers to vomit." In today's culture, Levy writes, the idea of a woman participating in a wet T-shirt contest or being comfortable watching explicit pornography has become a symbol of strength; she says that she was surprised at how many people, both men and women, working for programs such as Girls Gone Wild told her that this new "raunch" culture marked not the downfall of feminism but its triumph, but Levy was unconvinced.
