Bygone Badass Broads: 52 Forgotten Women Who Changed the World by Mackenzi Lee
5.0
This book is fantastic. It was funny, thought provoking, informative and when I finished it I felt fucking empowered.
All these women are awesome in their own right, strong females in every sense of the word. They are fighters, both on battlefields and off. They are trailblazers. They achieved amazing things in their fields often in the face of men telling them to get back in the kitchen.
You know what though? There are some men behind some of these women that are examples of what good men are. They look at these women as equals, they are supportive, they stand up for them in times when a man's voice was worth so much more than a woman's.
Of course this book is also full of dickbags that wanted to hold women down because they're dickbags.
But let's focus on the Badass Broads that stomped all over them, let's circulate this book so that a generation of young women have a whole new sea of historical figures to research and write about in history papers for years to come, a whole new pool of inspirational idols and heroines.
Everyone should read this. Everyone. There are women in history that we know nothing about that did crazy amazing things.
It's about time their stories were heard.
Well done Mackenzie Lee you absolutely legend.
