Praise For Let It Shine: Stories of Black Women Freedom Fighters…
Includes biographies of Sojournor Truth, Biddy Mason, Harriet Tubman, Ida B.Wells-Barnett, Mary McLeod Bethune, Ella Josephine Baker, Dorothy Irene Height, Rosa Parks, Fannie Lou Hamer, and Shirley Chisholm. Andrea Davis Pinkney's moving text and Stephen Alcorn's glorious portraits celebrate the lives of ten bold women who lit the path to freedom for generations. The lives these women led are part of an incredible story about courage in the face of oppression about the challenges and triumphs of the battle for civil rights and about speaking out for what you believe in-even when it feels like no one is listening. Shirley Chisholm became the first black woman elected to the U.S.
Harriet Tubman helped more than three hundred slaves escape the South on the Underground Railroad. Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus and sparked a boycott that changed America.
