On March 8, New Mexico History teacher Lisa Nordstrum participated in an event at the Capitol Rotunda honoring the contributions of New Mexican women throughout the state’s long history. In recognition of International Women’s Day, the International Women’s Forum of New Mexico (IWF-NM) sponsored a public celebration of the New Mexico Historic Women Marker Program—roadside markers installed throughout the state, each celebrating courageous women who helped shape our multicultural history in pursuits as diverse as the arts, business, education, government, healthcare, and science.
