Since as early as the eighteenth century, Black Canadian women have achieved tremendous successes and accomplishments in many fields, giving Canada its unique identity. From Marie-Joseph Angélique in the early 1700's; Mary Ann Shadd Cary, women's rights activist and the first Black woman to publish a newspaper in North America; Viola Davis Desmond, who fought racial segregation; Carrie Best, who, in 1946, founded The Clarion, the first Black-owned and published Nova Scotia newspaper; Rosemary Brown, feminist and Member of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia, from 1972 to 1986; to Hon. Dr. Jean Augustine, social activist, trailblazing politician and educator, who was the first African-Canadian woman to be elected to the House of Commons, the first African-Canadian woman to be appointed to the federal Cabinet, and the first Fairness Commissioner of Ontario; and thousands of distinguished women, they have overcome massive obstacles and achieved tremendously. Through a potent combination of immense brain power, dogged determination, tireless resilience and stick-to-it-ness, Black Canadian women have not only distinguished themselves in their professional careers, but also strengthened, bolstered and uplifted their families, communities, professions, and the Canadian societal tapestry. And, they continue to trailblaze and excel, throughout all facets of Canadian society, although not always being acknowledged publicly - but no longer. This second edition of the book, "100 Accomplished Black Canadian Women 2018", unveils another 100 stellar stories, chronicles and shines a bright spotlight on the successes of Canada's Accomplished Black Women.
