    Everyone should vote. These transitioning times are part of everyone’s political journey. Why then do some people pick up pitch forks and protest while others choose to not vote at all over things so essential like internet access? Experiencing America through the lenses of the historical “mothers of the country” aka Black women is the necessary to understanding the underbelly causes and reactions of American politics.Often, Black women are painted as angry or misinformed, especially when running for office. As key figures such as Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams, and Ayanna Presley continue to make headway towards higher offices, it is mission critical to dismiss misogynoir – misogyny directed towards Black women where race and gender play roles in bias. Suffering from double bias has limited the progression of Black female politicians, making it hard for them to be elected or push issues of personal concern.With Pen and Voice: A Critical Anthology of Nineteenth-Century African-American Women by Shirley Wilson Logan notes the snail’s pace growth of Black women in politics in the previous century. Yet few books specifically address the millennial woman’s role or new faces in the movement such as Maxine Waters or Michelle Obama, in their own voices.For anyone, especially women, who is interested in entering the political arena, perfecting political communication or learning more about the historic roles Blacks have played in politics – here is the book for you. Starting with Sojourner Truth and traveling to present day, this book demonstrates best practices for instigating movements, solving global problems, and inspiring change for a nation. This book is written in the words of the speech writers, reflecting the tone of their generations. It is accessible to those who are new to politics, communications, or personal development, yet the book can impact the lives of even the most seasoned politicians. Each chapter highlights the voice of a different political icon.
