This is a book of people, of ideas, of accomplishments and events. It's a book about Artists, Activists and Allies, about Civil Rights and Choice, about Freedom Fighters, Headliners, Justice and Labor. It's about historic moments-Kamala Harris being sworn in as the first African-American and first Asian-American Vice President of the United States; Title IX passing through Congress; Seneca Falls where the first women's rights convention was held; the Riot Grrrls movement, and so much more. The ABCs of Women's History is a story of persistence. It's a story of pride. And it's a story of progress. This book celebrates the disruptors, the dreamers, the determined, and the do-it-yourself-ers who continue to inspire the next generation of women to build a brighter, better tomorrow"--
