Women Who Inspire!!
These leaders — Black, Latina, Asian, Arab, Native American, White — in varied fields, broke both gender and racial barriers as they made history. Some are actually continuing to make history TODAY! Here is a by-no-means-comprehensive primer recognizing women of past and present:
Maya Angelous
Maya Angelous was a Pulitzer prize-nominated poet and civil rights activist. Her first autobiography I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings received critical acclaim for its depiction of racism and sexual assault. A leader in black feminism, Angelou worked with Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X during the 1960s Civil Rights Movement.
Alicia Garza
Alicia Garza, along with Opal Tometi and Patrisse Cullors, co-founded the Black Lives Matter movement in 2013 after the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin murder trial.
Dolores Huerta
Dolores Huerta is a labor activist and co-founder of the National Farmworkers Association, now the United Farm Workers. She has advocated for immigrant and Latino rights in the United States. Huerta also served as an honorary co-chair for the Women’s March on Washington.
