The APA Committee on the Status of Women (CSW) is creating posters and other merchandise that will soon be available for purchase at Cafe Press. The poster below is a mock-up of a series of at least three “Philosophy: Got Women?” posters that are currently under construction. Each of the three posters will have new and unique composite photos of women in philosophy. If you know of women philosophers (historical or contemporary) who you think should be included (including yourself!) in these composite photos, please send a high-quality image and corresponding name to apa.csw.mail@gmail.com. [updated to correct email address]
The deadline for submitting names with photos is March 15, 2012.
I am so impressed by what the CSW is doing.
Here’s a question others may have: What about women philosophers one knows about but for whom one doesn’t have a photo and doesn’t have any access to one.
As a doctor reading this blog, I was confused, because I’m used to:
APA = american psychiatric association, and
CSW = commercial sex worker.
Otherwise, a great idea!
Glad to see Jane Addams down at the bottom as a foundation.
Walking by the Maths dept. at my university yesterday, I saw the following poster on one of the bulletin boards:
The URL is broken! You’ll want to fix that.
Thanks, Mr J!
O dear, Jender don’t tell me a link didn’t work!!

A quick look at the American Mathematical Society website shows them to be far ahead of philosophy on promoting women!
