We Go High: How 30 Women of Colour Achieved Greatness against all Odds | Nicole Ellis
1 post | 1 read
Follow the life lessons of 30 remarkable women of color who are making their mark on society and culture. "When you are struggling and you start thinking about giving up, I want you to remember something ... and that is the power of hope." -Michelle Obama (White House speech, 2017) We Go High brings together the inspiring stories, motivational quotes, and personal philosophies of 30 influential women of color who have sought to overcome challenges in their lives. From activists to scientists, artists to sporting icons, each woman's story is different-but all have in common a deep-seated resilience to fight against the prejudices and barriers to success that women of color face on a daily basis. The book features political powerhouses such as Kamala Harris and Stacey Abrams, as well as businesswomen like Arundhati Bhattacharya and Angelica Ross, and writers Michaela Coel and Amanda Gorman. With 30 stunning, specially commissioned portraits, We Go High not only celebrates these remarkable women's achievements, but uncovers the personal beliefs, attitudes, and determination that drive them.

We Go High is a wonderful tribute to women of color everywhere. One highlight of this book is how it highlights people who are not often included. I think that featuring marginalized people is so important. Another highlight of this book is the amazing full-color art that decorates each woman's pages. It's a blend of photography and digital artwork and fully celebrates each woman.
