How fearless African American women broke barriers, tamed the frontier, and rewrote Western history
Shattering Myths of the Wild West When most people picture the Wild West, they imagine sheriffs with shiny badges, white cowboys driving herds of cattle, and saloon girls dancing under dim lantern light. Hollywood movies and television created that image and repeated it until it became accepted as fact. But the real West was far more diverse. Among its most overlooked pioneers were Black cowgirls—women who rode, roped, herded cattle, and owned stables at a time when both their race and gender were considered barriers.

The Forgotten Pillars: Pashtun Sacrifices in the Making of Pakistan When the story of Pakistan is told, often it is a tale of political negotiations in Delhi, fiery speeches by Muslim League leaders, and the vision of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

Their story, though pushed into the margins of official history, remains a cornerstone of Pakistan’s creation.
