I am thrilled to announce that the National Women’s History Project chose Dusty Roads as one of their 2017 Honorees for National Women’s History Month in March! The theme for 2017 is “Honoring Trailblazing Women in Labor and Business.” She is one of 10 women in the country selected for their “extraordinary contributions and trailblazing efforts in labor and/or business.” It was incredibly difficult for me to keep her nomination a surprise but it was well worth it to see the joy of acknowledgment on her face when she read the congratulatory letter from the NWHP. Dusty, Jean and I are looking forward to the official celebration next year in Washington, D.C.! Best of all, Dusty’s rightful place in history is now assured.
