Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus and sparked a
boycott that changed America. Harriet Tubman helped more than three
hundred slaves escape the South on the Underground Railroad.
Shirley Chisholm became the first black woman elected to the U.S.
House of Representatives.
The lives these women led are part of an incredible story about
courage in the face of oppression; about the challenges and
triumphs of the battle for civil rights; and about speaking out for
what you believe in--even when it feels like no one is listening.
Andrea Davis Pinkney's moving text and Stephen Alcorn's glorious
portraits celebrate the lives of ten bold women who lit the path to
freedom for generations. Includes biographies of Sojournor Truth,
Biddy Mason, Harriet Tubman, Ida B.Wells-Barnett, Mary McLeod
Bethune, Ella Josephine Baker, Dorothy Irene Height, Rosa Parks,
Fannie Lou Hamer, and Shirley Chisholm.
