The Jobs to Move America coalition teamed up with California Institute of Technology for Women's History Month, organizing the Women Can Build photography exhibit.
The exhibit, featuring photographs by Pulitzer Prize winner Deanna Fitzmaurice, reveals the overlooked contributions of skilled and hard-working women who are building our trams, rail and buses.
Jobs to Move hosted several Caltech faculty to comment on how women around the world are achieving and fighting for equal rights, equal pay, equal access, and equal opportunity in the workplace.
The exhibit, its many sponsors ranging from unions to public agencies, features 10 photos and stories of historic and modern “Rosies"--the term coming from the iconic “Rosie the Riveter” who represented women working manufacturing jobs in World War II.
This slideshow features 10 modern-day women, followed by a few images of the historic Rosies who came before them.
