Durant segles, el seu paper ha quedat relegat al d’esposes i mares i qualsevol fet destacat quasi sempre s’ha atribuït als  homes del seu voltant o ha caigut en l’oblit. Per aquest motiu i a les portes del 8-M volem explicar-te sis històries amb protagonistes femenines que han viscut al llarg de totes les èpoques. Les seves biografies demostren que van ser pioneres en diversos àmbits de la vida social, política i cultural de les comarques de Barcelona.
