What a roundup. This week Angie starts us off by sharing the history of tignons and the Tignon Law of 1876, requiring Black women to cover their hair.

Theresa continues the thoughts of strong women with her retelling of Artemisia I of Halicarnassus, the female general, who fought against the Greeks under Xerxes in the Battle of Salamis in 480 BCE.

This episode pairs well with:
