A celebration of strong, resilient, innovative, and inspiring women of colour. With a vibrant mixture of photography, illustration, biography, and storytelling, author Malaika Adero will spotlight well-known historical figures and women who are pushing boundaries today - from Rosa Parks, Shirley Chisholm, Althea Gibson, and Mae Jamison to Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Mo'Ne Davis, Simone Biles, and Ava DuVernay. Entries on each woman or group will highlight their accomplishments, their world-changing words, and the ways in which their lives and actions have made the world a better place.
