⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Holmes is currently one of the best historical resources on Instagram-I have learned so much from her posts- &I was so excited to read this book bringing to light ten Black women who were foundational to the Christian faith.
The majority of these names were brand new to me,& hearing how much they contributed just reinforces the certainty that we are standing on the shoulders of many other Black women history hasn‘t remembered.

Reading this book made me more aware and increased my empathy to those impacted by slavery and racism. These women lived lives that were filled with advocating for others. Each woman profiled in this book was a true hero. Their stories are filled with examples of strength and courage. They earned their places in history and most certainly, deserve to be remembered. Be enlightened, be encouraged…read this book.
