SUMMARY:Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks
DESCRIPTION:Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks are two of the greatest heroes in American history. Each of these courageous women risked her life for the betterment of others. Neither achieved wealth\, and both knew great sorrow before becoming historical icons. \n  \n Mrs. Tubman is best known for risking her life on numerous missions deep behind enemy lines to rescue people suffering under the unspeakable cruelty of slavery. She was also an army spy\, nurse\, cook\, and the first woman in American military history to lead Army troops into battle \n  \nAmerica remembers Mrs. Parks for the courageous moment in which her act of humane refusal to submit to the segregation system’s unspeakable cruelty help to spark a revolution for the betterment of all of America. But she was a long-time civil rights activist\, educator\, and philanthropist whose long lifetime uplifted the United States. Comparison to Mrs. Parks in American history\, click here! \n  \nAs we consider Harriet Chapman and Rosa Parks\, we discover how one courageous person’s act of heroism can inspire and change a nation. Amazingly\, Mrs. Tubman and Mrs. Parks were alive at the same time for 34 days. Click here to read more. Mrs. Tubman died 34 days after Rosa Parks was born. It’s not hard to imagine that as a passing of the torch to The next generation of heroic women.

SUMMARY:Ida B Wells and Oprah Winfrey
DESCRIPTION:This brand new multimedia presentation looks at the lives of two amazing African-American female journalists. Each was born in Mississippi\, moved to Tennessee\, and built an amazing life in Chicago. \nIda B. Wells is often credited as being the first true investigative reporter. Her exposes on lynching put her life in jeopardy\, but helped shape the national debate about civil rights\, law\, and domestic terrorism. Arguably the most important African-American female suffragist\, she for tirelessly to get women the right to vote and then was deeply disappointed when most African-American women still could not participate in the electoral process. \nOprah Winfrey might be the most famous woman in America. She is the wealthiest self-made African-American of all time. Her influential talk show\, speeches\, specials\, and magazines have all had enormous impact on the nation. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Nellie Bly And Dorothy Kilgallen
DESCRIPTION:Nellie Bly and Dorothy Kilgallen are two of the most groundbreaking female journalists in American history. \n  \nNellie Bly fearlessly exposed the harsh\, unfair working conditions for mill workers in Pittsburgh\, drawing the ire of the richest people in the city. She served as her newspaper\,s foreign correspondent in Mexico before being run out of the country for exposing governmental corruption\, risked her life going undercover in a “mental asylum” in New York\, and set a record for the fastest trip around the world – all before she was 25 years old! \n  \nDorothy Kilgallen was the first woman journalist in American history to be a murder reporter\, breaking front-page scoop after scoop before she imitated Nellie Bly and competed in a race around the world -All before she was 25 years old. She later became an important celebrity columnist\, broke major stories\, and was the first mainstream reporter to challenge the Warren Commission. As she was preparing a book\, purporting to prove that the murder of President John F Kennedy was a conspiracy\, Dorothy Kilgallen died under very mysterious circumstances. \n  \nNellie Bly and Dorothy Kilgallen each used the power of the press to try and help make society more fair. And each opened the door for many more women to become journalists.  This multimedia presentation is exciting\, fascinating\, and even a little scary as we follow these women who risked their lives in pursuit of the truth.
