A Distinguished Leader with a Legacy to Remember - Mary Church Terrell

A woman of class, dignity and a force to be reckoned with. Mary Church Terrell was an integral piece to the civil rights decades before subsequent laws were put into place. Coining the term, lifting as we climb - Church Terrell’s values were based upon intersectionality, education and bringing everyone along for the ride.  “I cannot help wondering what I might have become and might have done if I had lived in a country which had not circumscribed and handicapped me on account of my race, but had allowed me to reach any heights I was able to attain.” - Mary Church Terrell Sources: https://www.womenshistory.org/education-resources/biographies/mary-church-terrell  https://www.aroundrobin.com/product/dignity-and-defiance-the-story-of-mary-church-terrell/  Now You Know: https://www.nps.gov/people/idabwells.htm#:~:text=African%2DAmerican%20journalist%20and%20activist,also%20fought%20for%20woman%20suffrage.
