Description | How did women ascend to positions of influence? And once in power, what leadership strategies did they use to deal with various challenges? This volume explores these questions by introducing twelve women, who have spearheaded a wide array of social movements that span the 1940s to the present. The women profiled here are, amongst others: Eleanor Roosevelt, Gloria Steinem, Dazon Dixon Diallo, CEO Cecile Richards (Planned Parenthood), New York City labor organizer Bhairavi Desai, women’s rights leader Charlotte Bunch, feminist poet Audre Lorde, civil rights activists Daisy Bates and Aileen Clarke Hernandez, Kenyan environmental activist Wangari Maathai, Nicaraguan revolutionary Mirna Cunningham, and South African public prosecutor Thuli Madonsela. |
