February is Black History Month, and as we reflect on the triumphs and history of African Americans, we want to acknowledge the role of Black women in the voting rights movement. From Ida B.

While Black women are not a monolith in any shape or form, they have and continue to use their voices to make progress on many issues, especially voting rights.
