Today, as Gender Equality week meets the first day of Black History Month, we are honoring the work of creative Black women who have shaped our culture, and whose work dares us to see the world differently. We invite you to take 100 seconds to share a quote, a short video, or a poem from a Black female artist you admire. A few of our favorites are featured below. Together, let's fill our social spaces with inspiration for the road ahead.
A few of our favorites: Maya Angelou - Still I rise Aja Monet - My mother was a freedom fighter (@ Women's March) - starts at :40 Audre Lorde - Dahomey Some other great ones in here.
