Over the years, history has seen extremely intelligent, powerful, and inspiring women who pioneered women's rights and racial equality and contributed greatly to the worlds of science, math, aviation, and literature, paving the way for adversity. \nWhether these famous women were inventors, scientists, leaders, politicians, or queens, these powerful women have undoubtedly left their mark on the world we know today. \nWomen on this list are remembered for being rule-breakers and pioneers who show their male peers what it means to be a role model. Without each of their contributions, our world would not be what it is today. In honor of Women's Month, we will look at these ferocious, empowering, and inspiring ladies.<\/p>\n\n

Marie Curie \/ 1867-1934 \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n

Born in Poland, Marie Curie was a pioneering physicist and scientist, who coined the term radioactivity, discovered two new elements (radium and polonium), and developed a portable x-ray machine. \nMarie Curie was the first and only person to win two separate Nobel Prizes, one for physics and one for chemistry. Although science and physics have been dominated by male fields, clashes and near-constant difficulties and discrimination throughout her career, Marie Curie's research remains relevant and has influenced the world of science to this day.<\/p>\n\n

Amelia Earhart \/ 1897-939 \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n

Amelia Earhart was the definition of a real rule breaker. An American aviator who became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic and the first person ever to fly solo from Hawaii to the US, Amelia was a pioneering aviator and a true female trailblazer. \nShe set many aviation records, but her attempt to be the first person to circumnavigate the globe led to her disappearance and presumed death. In July 1937. Earhart disappears somewhere over the Pacific Ocean. The wreckage of her plane was never found. To this day, its disappearance remains one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of the twentieth century.<\/p>\n\n

Ada Lovelace \/ 1815-1852 \/<\/h4>\n\n

Ada Lovelace was an English mathematician and the world\u2019s first computer programmer. Ada was a charming woman in society who is known to be the first person to ever publish a computer algorithm, and her genius is years ahead of her time. Known for her translation of the scientific paper Elements of Charles Babbage's Analytical Machine as a Computer-Like Machine, Ada is considered the first programmer in history to write an algorithm for finding Bernoulli numbers in such a form that it can be read by the machine.<\/p>\n\n

Susan B. Anthony \/ 1820-1906 \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n

Susan B. Anthony was raised in a Quaker family with deep roots in activism and social justice, which inspired her to advocate for women's suffrage, women's property rights, and the abolition of slavery. \nIn 1872, to challenge suffrage, Anthony tried to vote in the 1872 presidential election and was arrested. Although it was never able to vote legally, the 19th Amendment, ratified in 1920, was called the Susan B. Anthony Amendment. \n* The Nineteenth Amendment to the US Constitution guarantees the right to vote.<\/p>\n\n

Sojourner Truth \/ 1797 \u2013 1883 \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n

One of the most inspiring black women in history. An African-American, abolitionist, and women's rights activist, Truth gave a speech at the Ohio Convention on Women's Rights in Akron, 1851, which became known as \"Am I Not a Woman?\" \nSeparated from her family at the age of nine and later auctioned off as a slave, Truth fled her enslavers in 1829. She later advocated for women's and African-American rights and became known for her passionate speeches on women's rights prison reform, and universal suffrage. She became one of the most important leaders of abolitionism and one of the earliest defenders of women's rights.<\/p>\n\n

Catherine the Great is one of the world's great historical figures. Stuck in a loveless marriage to the King of Russia, Catherine orchestrated a coup to overthrow her wildly unpopular husband Peter III and then named herself Empress of the Russian Empire in 1762. Catherine the Great has all the credit for the modernization of Russia and created the first state-funded school for girls, strengthened the strength of the church in the country, and promoted the development of the economy, trade, and the arts.<\/p>\n\n

Rosalind Franklin \/ 1920 - 1958 \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n

Born in 1920 in London, Rosalind Franklin was a biophysicist who has made important contributions to determining and understanding the structure of DNA, viruses, coal, and graphite. \nLike many women scientists, Franklin has been deprived of recognition throughout her career. The image of the DNA molecule of Franklin is key to deciphering its structure, but after his death, other men received the Nobel Prize in Physiology.<\/p>\n\n

Chen Shiung Wu \/ 1912-1997 \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n
\n

Born in Liu Ho, China in 1912, Chien-Shiung Wu was appointed to Columbia University as part of the Manhattan Project. Working as a senior scientist on the atomic bomb in 1943, she conducted research to detect radiation and uranium enrichment. \nIn the mid-1950s, two theoretical physicists, Chung-Dao Lee and Chen Ning Yang called Chien-Shiung. They wanted help to overturn the law on maintaining parity. Using the chemical isotope cobalt-60, they showed that the laws of nature are not always symmetrical, refuting a law that has been passed for more than 30 years. Despite her key contribution to the discovery, only Young and Lee received the Nobel Prize in 1957.<\/p>\n\n

Effa Manley \/ 1897-1981 \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n
\n

At a time when the sport is made up mostly of white male owners and athletes, Effa Manley refuses to join gender and racial stereotypes. She went down in history as the sports executive and co-owner of the Newark Eagles baseball team. Her team won the 1946 Negro League World Series. \nEffa Manley quickly became a uniquely powerful influence in the growth and strengthening of the league, as well as in the growth and strengthening of the black community in Newark and Haarlem. She is a prominent member of the NAACP, boycotting companies in Haarlem that do not hire black employees while caring for her Eagles players, helping them in every aspect of finding off-season work to paying down payments in their homes.<\/p>\n\n

Margaret Hamilton \/ 1936 - \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n
\n

MIT's software engineering department is headed by Margaret Hamilton. She is also responsible for writing the Apollo Guide software for the Apollo space program from scratch. The software, which allows the computer to recognize error messages and ignore priority tasks, continues to monitor astronauts Niall Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin over the crater, the dusty crust of the moon until they land. \nHamilton's work is not widely known to people outside the scientific community, but it is proof that behind the achievements of every great man is the work of a great woman.<\/p>\n\n

Malala Yousafzai \/ 1997 - \/<\/em><\/h4>\n\n

Malala Yousafzai was born in Pakistan on July 12, 1997. Her father is a teacher and runs a girls' school in her village when the Taliban took over her town. They ban all girls from going to school. \nIn 2012, at the age of 15, Malala spoke publicly about women's rights, and as a result, a gunman boarded her school bus and shot the young activist in the head. Malala survived, and the assassination caused a stir in the country and abroad. Malala Yousafzai moved to the United Kingdom, where she became a fierce presence on the world stage, and at the age of 17 became the youngest Nobel Peace Prize winner. \nToday, she is defending her cause even more boldly, despite ongoing threats. Her voice is heard both in world forums and in student auditoriums, as well as in the refugee camps she visits.<\/p>\n\n
