Everything the women did in the above photographs should be applauded. Wonderful women, I love them. Except that woman that was walking with a gay. She and her son shud be caught and jail for 14yrs. Nonsense. Encouraging gayism since First world war. |

More than 80 percent of the people listed have no contribution to world history. Title is quite misleading I expected to read of women who truly impacted the world with their acts |

What of Rosa Parks |
| Re: Powerful Photos Of Women Who Changed History Forever. by smithboela(m): 11:15pm On Aug 27, 2014 |
ABOUT ROSA PARKS On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Parks refused to obey bus driver James F. Blake's order that she give up her seat in the colored section to a white passenger, after the white section was filled. Parks was not the first person to resist bus segregation. Others had taken similar steps, including Irene Morgan in 1946, Sarah Louise Keys in 1955, and the members of the Browder v. Gayle lawsuit (Claudette Colvin, Aurelia Browder, Susie McDonald, and Mary Louise Smith) who were arrested in Montgomery months before Parks. NAACP organizers believed that Parks was the best candidate for seeing through a court challenge after her arrest for civil disobedience in violating Alabama segregation laws, although eventually her case became bogged down in the state courts while the Browder v. Gayle case succeeded.[2][3] Parks' act of defiance and the Montgomery Bus Boycott became important symbols of the modern Civil Rights Movement. She became an international icon of resistance to racial segregation. She organized and collaborated with civil rights leaders, including Edgar Nixon, president of the local chapter of the NAACP; and Martin Luther King, Jr., a new minister in town who gained national prominence in the civil rights movement. At the time, Parks was secretary of the Montgomery chapter of the NAACP. She had recently attended the Highlander Folk School, a Tennessee center for training activists for workers' rights and racial equality. She acted as a private citizen "tired of giving in". Although widely honored in later years, she also suffered for her act; she was fired from her job as a seamstress in a local department store. Eventually, she moved to Detroit, where she briefly found similar work. From 1965 to 1988 she served as secretary and receptionist to John Conyers, an African-American U.S. Representative. After retirement, Parks wrote her autobiography and lived a largely private life in Detroit. In her final years, she suffered from dementia. Parks received national recognition, including the NAACP's 1979 Spingarn Medal, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Congressional Gold Medal, and a posthumous statue in the United States Capitol's National Statuary Hall. Upon her death in 2005, she was the first woman and second non-U.S. government official to lie in honor at the Capitol Rotunda.

chulla12: I guess Black women didn't change much in the world? Great photo. Thanks for sharing that. She was one of the Little Rock (Arkansas) Nine who were the first 9 teenagers admitted in a previously all white school. They had a pretty hard time of it with some mean people and the FG had to call out the National Guard to protect them and even drive them back and forth from school. I think there's a video interview on YouTube with the young lady in the pic, 35 or 40 years later, but I can't find the link. She downplays it, but she was certainly pretty darn courageous!! |

Nairaland used to be so much more. Now all we have are Misogynists and homophobic '*****' who think the world revolves around them. They keep reveling in the past glories of some other men but when all is said and done, these people are empty upstairs.... like 'pls kill me now I can't believe I'm talking to a human being' feeling. Men invented A and B... Men, not you. As far as I am concerned, nobody is named 'men'. Your superiority is not a function of your gender. We have stupid men and these men go to show just how dumb they are each time they open their mouth. |

For once I would like to see what a woman has invented to change history besides all this talk of FIRST woman to do this or do that. Its just too stale if you ask me.BOY!!!! BOY!!!! BOY!!!! The world wide web is there for you, you know. Just Google it. And stop hating on women. |

50calibre: If that woman had been a muslim, or that picture was taken from iraq, iran, egypt or syria, the story would've been different... your guess may, however, not as good as mine... |

DollyParton1:. Child mind your tongue, am sure am older than you. Why do you girls of today fail to see the truth? What a pity. I bet you can't stand next to the so called history shapers, just because you are a girl doesn't mean men should worship you. All the men throwing praises on women here will end up being polygamous so beware. After God made women to HELP men not rule men. |
