About the Exhibition: While history and society often highlight the prominent male figures, womxn play pivotal roles as activists, leaders, thinkers, and everyday participants. Yet, their stories frequently remain in the shadows. Portraits of Freedom: The Womxn Driving our Freedom Movements aims to shed warranted light on stories of womxn’s dignity, humanity and resilience in times of profound difficulty and danger. This photo exhibition celebrates the womxn who have played pivotal roles in the Tibetan, Uyghur, Hong Konger, Taiwanese, and Chinese freedom movements as academics, survivors, government officials, lawyers, movement leaders, and more. Our wish is that Portraits of Freedom will uplift the truth and lived experiences of these womxn in our movements and histories.
