On Women’s Equality Day, The Black Women’s Agenda, Inc. honors the passage of the 19th Amendment while lifting the names of the Black women who made the suffrage movement possible.

Leaders like Ida B. Wells, Mary Church Terrell, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, and Sojourner Truth carried the dual burden of fighting for gender equality while demanding recognition of Black humanity. Their voices were too often sidelined, yet their courage carved the path for generations to come.

Today, their legacy calls us to action. Women’s rights are human rights. Racial justice is women’s justice. We cannot be complacent when inequities in health, wealth, and political representation continue to undermine the promise of equality for Black women and girls.

This day is not just history — it is a charge to keep building, keep voting, keep raising our voices until true equity is realized.

Independence. Freedom. Justice.

"Independence Day is a reminder that America is not the project of any one person. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word ‘We.’ ‘We The People.’ ‘We Shall Overcome.’ ‘Yes We Can.’ America is owned by no one. It belongs to all citizens. And at this moment in history—when core democratic principles seem to be continuously under attack, when too many people around the world have become cynical and disengaged—now is precisely the time to ask ourselves tough questions about how we can build our democracies and make them work in meaningful and practical ways for ordinary people."
