But do you know about their contributions to civil rights causes? Or to science? Or what they've overcome just to survive in a world that saw them as lesser because of the body they were born into? Did you know that one of today's greatest activists started her political activities picketing with Girl Scouts to protest racial segregation? Or that one of the great singer-songwriters of our time overcame a near-fatal encounter with polio which affected how she learned to play guitar? Did you know that this television chef not only served in the United States Navy but also held a top-secret clearance and created a shark repellant that is still used today? Join me in discovering more about women you may have already heard of and many more that you might not have.
