A Timely Discourse From the Most Powerful Subsection of the American Electorate

"I strongly encourage all women to become involved within their communities and to create meaningful political dialogue. Every issue and aspect of politics effects women, and as women's influence in government and politics continue to grow our country stands to gain from that involvement." - U.S. Representative, Eddie Bernice Johnson, Texas.

"With women having voted at higher rates than men in every presidential election since 1980, we are finally recognizing women as the most powerful sub-segment of the US electorate. All of us would be well-advised to listen more to what women have to say about what matters to them when going to the polls and choosing their leaders." - Jeanne Haws, Associate Dean, Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, Princeton University

"It is critically important to support the engagement of women in the political process and dialogue. Too many important voices and too many important issues are not heard. The contributors to this book are raising issues that are important for all members of our democracy to consider." - Governor Christine Gregoire, Washington State.

What Women Want in the 2008 Elections... and Beyond!

While the mostly mainstream media reporting of diverse women's needs and issues that should be substantially addressed in this upcoming watershed election has been extremely biased and limited to personalities and superficial physical representations, the reality of women's lives and what we hope for has been missing in action. "Voices for Change" plans to remedy this void with a demographic and geographic cross-section of women speaking of their highest visions to create a nation and world in which women, families, communities and all can benefit and advance.

This book project can be helpful to open and promote discussion at the kitchen table, in high school and college classrooms, across the divides of race, class and gender and amongst women with differing viewpoints. We need more dialogue and democracy if we are to reclaim our country and increase women's much needed voices and political participation.

Buy a copy for yourself and another copy of an elected official in your community.

A Must Read if you're a political woman

It's rare that we get to share our opinion in such an honest and open way. Every female studies class should be aware of this personal approach on how to make changes in our country. Purchase this or your female friends, children, nieces, mother and even your grandmother!

Inspiring, provocative, powerful

This is a beautifully conceived book. Each entry begins with a single word, and continues with a short discussion explaining why the contributing author chose that word. As I read each entry, I found myself wondering what my own word would be, what single word would I choose to express at this particular time in our national and global experience? And that's the brilliance of this book. As it brings forward the voice of diverse women from across the US, it invites my voice and your voice and the voice of all concerned and committed people.
