New York Times best seller book RAD American Women A-Z

Like all A-Z books, this one illustrates the alphabet - but instead of "A is for apple", A is for Angela - as in Angela Davis, the 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 farmworkers; E is for Ella Baker, who mentored Dr. Martin Luther King & helped shape the civil rights movement. And the list of great women continues, spanning several centuries, multiple professions, and 26 diverse individuals. There are artists & abolitionists, scientists & suffragettes, rock stars & rabble-rousers, & agents of change of all kinds. The book includes an introduction that discusses what it means to be rad & radical, an afterword with 26 suggestions for how you can be rad, a resource guide with ideas for further learning & reading. By offering a fresh & diverse array of female role models, we can remind listeners that there are many places to find inspiration: that being smart & strong & brave is rad.
