Check out the story of Sybil Luddington, a 16 year old heroine of the Revolutionary War who actually rode 50 miles to alert her father's militia group that the British were attacking a nearby city. Just google her name and you'll learn that women really were in history.

A poem or a song isn't a valid historical source. That all those school books have used Longfellow's poem as fact, depite the availability of Revere's own contradictory account, shows that people will believe what they want to believe and falsify history to serve thier own purposes. The dates might be right, but much of the history taught in schools is a fairy tale. Most people still think Chritopher Columbus was a hero, rather than the man who was carried back to Spain in chains for his genocidal persecution of peaceful native peoples.
