Rise celebrates the inspirational stories of 100 remarkable women
of colour. From the entrepreneur with a homemade marmalade business
who went on to found Women's World Banking, to the educator who
built the first university in the world; and from the athlete who
fled civil war on a sinking boat and then swam in the Olympics, to
the first Black female astronaut, these trailblazers have risen
above challenges to reach dizzying heights. These scientists,
entertainers, sportswomen, artists and activists hail from more
than forty countries. Past and present, famous and forgotten, they
have worked both behind the scenes and under public scrutiny to
make our world a better place. Featuring stunning portrait
illustrations by noted artist Maliha Abidi, Rise reveals the
creativity and courage of these pioneers, and is essential for all.
