Not Done Yet: Shirley Chisholm's Fight for Change

Even as a child, Shirley Chisholm was a natural-born fighter who wanted things to be fair. At first, she thought she could help lift others by becoming a teacher. So she did. But she wasn't done yet. Stirring free verse chronicles Shirley's journey from teaching to entering politics, eventually becoming the first Black woman ever elected to Congress-and, in 1972, the first woman of any race to seriously run for president. Through poetry and digital illustration, author Tameka Fryer Brown and artist Nina Crews celebrate Chisholm's determination and her commitment to working for rights for all. Although Chisholm is gone, her legacy lives on, continuing to inspire those who fight for fairness and change.
