"This enjoyable collection of portraits of Black women who impacted American society is not only something that belongs in a collection of Black books, but in the hands of children. Each woman is paired with a bio/written statement if you may, which only makes them more admirable than they already are. There is a wonderful varity of these magnifecent women ranging from dancers, clergy, revolutionary geniuses and storytellers. When reading this book, my pride grew even more so knowing that I too had the potential to succeed as these world changers had."
"This book is wonderful! The photography is just excellent. I enjoy just looking at the pictures and remembering the lives of so many great African-American women. The combination of the subjects chosen and the captivating photographs make it a wonderful book to have in any collection."
"this book will always hold a special place in my heart because 1) it's wonderful to see so many images of strong black women, both well known and unknown, and 2) the morning that i saw this exhibit was the morning that i decided to get sober (Nov. '90 when i made that decision, Nov. '92 when i made it stick). the biographies in this book were heavily leaned on by me during my journey to get and stay clean, as one of the things i was struggling with was my identity as a Black woman."
