Whether in the White House or on the courts of Wimbledon, in Hollywood or on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera House, these women have influenced the social, cultural, and political landscape of this country, and even the world. Luminaries such as Patti LaBelle, Venus Williams, Susan Taylor, and Judith Jamison speak about the challenges they?ve faced and the victo?ries they?ve won throughout their careers. These inspiring black women pass their knowledge and lessons on to a new generation of women in intimate first-person essays and stunning color portraits."--Publisher's website Notes Print version record Subject African American women -- Biography African American women social reformers -- Biography African American women political activists -- Biography African American women artists -- Pictorial works African American women -- Pictorial works African American women social reformers -- Pictorial works African American women political activists -- Pictorial works Inspiration -- Case studies Social change -- Case studies African American women African American women artists African American women political activists African American women social reformers Inspiration Social change Genre/Form collective biographies.
