Getting Started

Welcome to this five-part series that will take you on a virtual journey to 11 historic sites along the Central New York Women’s Rights Corridor. As you will hear in this video series, the Central New York Women’s Rights Corridor is credited as the “Birthplace of Women’s Rights in America.”

In addition to the Virtual Video Visits, New York State educators have compiled resources, links and interesting information to further assist you on your journey of exploration.

The producers of the video series thank Joanne Shenandoah for the use of her original song, “You Can Hear Them Dancing” as our opening theme music. The song is from her album Once in a Red Moon released by Canyon Records.

We suggest students begin their journey with “Series Overview: Honoring Sacred Ground.”
