“History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived. But if faced with courage, need not be lived again.” -Maya Angelo

Happy Black History Month! We are starting a four-part series on Facebook called Women Who Soar. Every Friday we will spotlight one Black Woman who impacted the course of history.

We know that as a demographic Black Women have been one of, if not the most oppressed groups in American history. But what our history classes failed to teach us is how vital Black Women have been to the American narrative of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries.

These women, along with others not featured, taught us that neither racism nor sexism can keep us from making a change.

Our list is obviously nowhere near complete, and we encourage you to share your favorite women in history with us throughout the month!

Today is a day of two firsts-

We are so excited to feature our first artist - Christell Victoria Roach. Inspired by the film Girl Rising and violations of young girls rights around the globe she wrote Letters to a Child Bride. Much of Christell’s work encompasses many different human rights topics, bringing light to the atrocities many face but seldom understand.

This piece is also the first post in the Let Her Learn blog. Designed to work as a campaign, Let Her Learn draws attention to the global climate of girls education. Through stories, scholarly articles, artwork, and conversation we can change the lives of many young girls around the world.

Give her the attention she deserves and ‪#‎letherlearn‬

Q: If you could fight anyone in history, who would it be? A: I would definitely fight Andrew Jackson for being a complete jack-off.

Q: What is the most random thing you’ve ever watched all the way through on Netflix? A: Big Trouble in Little China. I recommend this movie to every person ever.

“I’m feminist. I love feminism, and I love talking about feminism. We hear the argument "feminism today is just women complaining online about safe spaces and harassment." While this is an overused and ignorant argument against modern feminism, I know that my feminist activism could always use a bit of focusing. I generally feel overwhelmed with the amount of change I want to happen, not just in America but in different parts of the world. This overwhelmed feeling can lead me to becoming inactive. When this happens I look for a positive way to make myself feel a little better about the world and look for ways to combat the patriarchal society we live in. One of my favorite ways to get involved in the feminist movement is by finding people who are already doing something that I want to get involved with. Non-profits are my favorite, and I love volunteering my time and skills to help them accomplish their goals. Here are are a few non-profits who will benefit from your support, whether that be by financial donations or time/labor donations.”
