Rebellious Daughters of History

Blurb

The Rebellious Daughters are women drawn from across continents and decades connected by their determination to challenge prejudice, inequality and injustice. The book introduces women in accessible mini-biographies and excavates their lives from the obscurity to which they have been condemned by a historiography which is misogynistic, racist and centred on men in positions of power. Rebellious Daughters creates a vivid and inspiring series of portraits of women who refused to stay in their place in the expectation that their example will strengthen women fighting for a better world.
