This engaging ethnography is set in the remote district of Toledo in Belize, Central America, by Irma McClaurin, where three women weave personal stories about the events in their lives. Each describes her experiences of motherhood, marriage, family illness, emigration, separation, work, or domestic violence that led her to recognize gender inequality and then to do something about it. All three challenge the culture of gender at home and in the larger community (back cover).

"Women of Belize is an interesting ethnography about a population that is normally not reported about." ~Reader/ Amazon.com
