And speaking of famous-firsts when it comes to black women in the white house, Sojourner Truth is honored by Michelle Obama. And let's not forget Artis Lane, the sister who sculpted the bust!
And Sojourner Truth gets me on the subject of defiant women. Here is a video of Sandra Cisneros saying, among other things, that she hated the Iowa Writers Workshop.
And that brings us to another outspoken woman writer. Honor Moore talks about women who suffer from "Male Approval Desire."
Sarah Jones could sing, "I'm every woman," and not mean it as a metaphor. She is one of the few sisters I have ever seen give a Ted Talk. And she really brings it.
And let's wrap of with another sort of moment of a woman flipping the script. Chantal Biya is the First Lady of Cameroon. She is the polar opposite of Michelle Obama, but I am crazy about her. Flip through the images.
