Black Women Intelligentsia is comprised of a group of African American women collectively editing Black women's history online through Wikipedia's edit-a-thon. Our goal is to bring awareness to African American women from the 20th century by fact-checking, editing, rewriting and documenting their lives (herstories). We're always looking for new members -aka- Editors of Black Women's History. If you are interested in joining our virtual group visit our website [http://blackwomenintelligentsia.wordpress.com here] or sign-up on this page.
“When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.” – Audre Lorde
