This month holds particular significance as it coincides with the founding of pivotal organizations led by Black women, symbolizing a legacy of empowerment and advocacy.
Facing Challenges, Forging Progress
Black women have faced a unique set of obstacles throughout American history. They have battled against racism and sexism, often simultaneously. Despite these challenges, Black women have consistently risen above, becoming leaders, innovators, and role models for future generations.
Breaking Ground in Various Fields
