They reveal a remarkable shift from traditional roles to increased involvement in church, community, and politics, especially in advancing the peace process, along with an ongoing challenge to the patriarchal attitudes that kept them in the background for so long. The candor of their responses, together with Porter's astute commentary, reveal the substantial contributions that these women are now making to civic life in the North. |
