To celebrate International Womens Day, it was important for me to reflect and remember that Black women have for centuries made major contributions in history.

I proudly identify as a Black British woman with the dopest Nigerian heritage (Ayeee!!....Nigerians in the house!!!) which inspired me to research the contributions of Black women to British history; a part that is often overlooked.

Guurlll did I find some fascinating women! Women who broke glass ceilings, defied societal racial norms and went against the current. They were pioneers full of grit and grace.
