In this engaging biography by award-winning author Tonya Bolden, readers explore the remarkable life of Shirley Chisholm, the first Black woman elected to the U.S. House of Representatives and the first Black woman to seek a presidential nomination from a major political party. Chronicling her journey from her Brooklyn upbringing to her fierce advocacy against sexism and racism, Chisholm's story is one of courage and resilience. This extensively researched work highlights her fight for fair wages, equal rights, and peace, inspiring readers to understand the powerful impact one voice can have in shaping a nation.
