A is for Angela Davis; iconic political activist. B is for Billie Jean King, who shattered the glass ceiling of sports; C is for Carol Burnett, who defied assumptions about women in comedy; D is for Dolores Huerta, who organized farm-workers; and E is for Ella Baker, who mentored Dr. Martin Luther King and helped shape the Civil Rights Movement.You might not know all of these women, but you should. And the list of great women continues, spanning several centuries, multiple professions, and 26 diverse individuals. There are artists and abolitionists, scientists and suffragettes, rock stars and rabble-rousers, and agents of change of all kinds.
