Welcome to the
Classroom
Rosalind Franklin
The names Watson and Crick are synonymous with DNA as they are the men who discovered the souble helix structure. Or are they???
Marsha P. Johnson
Drunk History lied to you: Marsha did not throw the first brick at Stonewall. But! She was remarkable anyway!
Ching Shih
Genuine contender for Badassest Badass Bitch. China, Portugal, and Great Britain together could not stop her. Her forces were double that of the Spanish Armada! Who needs male pirates when you’ve got Ching Shih?!
Margery Kempe
This Badass Bitch was a Medieval Christian mystic who had visions, she walked around England sobbing for Jesus, and she traveled by herself to the Holy Land. Oh and she wrote her autobiography even though she was illiterate.
Queen Lili’uokalani
The last queen of Hawaii: prolific composer (you know her work), saved her people with a strict quarantine, imprisoned because white men.
Harriet Jacobs
This absolute QUEEN literally lived in a tiny attic crawlspace for SEVEN YEARS to keep her children safe. And that’s just one remarkable thing she did.
