Born into slavery in Maryland, Harriet Tubman escaped to freedom in the North in 1849 to become the most famous "conductor" on the Underground Railroad. Tubman risked her life to lead hundreds of family members and other slaves from the plantation system to freedom on this elaborate secret network of safe houses. A leading abolitionist before the American Civil War, she also helped the Union Army during the war, working as a spy among other roles.

Harriet Tubman (1820-1913)

Olympe de Gouges was a French social reformer and writer who challenged conventional views on a number of matters, especially the role of women as citizens. Many consider her among the world’s first feminists. She became active in political and social causes (divorce, maternity hospitals, abolitionism, and the rights of orphaned children and of unmarried mothers. In 1791, as the French Revolution continued, she published the pamphlet Déclaration des droits de la femme et de la citoyenne (“Declaration of the Rights of Woman and of the [Female] Citizen”) as a reply to the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the [Male] Citizen (Déclaration des Droits de l’Homme et du Citoyen)

Marie Gouze, a.k.a Olympe de Gouges (1748-1793)

French writer Simone de Beauvoir laid the foundation for the modern feminist movement. Also an existentialist philosopher, she had a long-term relationship with Jean-Paul Sartre. She published countless works of fiction and nonfiction during her lengthy career — often with existentialist themes — including 1949’s The Second Sex, which is considered a pioneering work of the modern feminism movement. De Beauvoir also lent her voice to various political causes and traveled the world extensively

Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986)

Rosa Parks was a civil rights leader whose refusal to give up her seat to a white passenger on a segregated bus led to the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Her bravery led to nationwide efforts to end racial segregation. Parks was awarded the Martin Luther King Jr. Award by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal.

Rosa Parks (1913-2005)

This British politician founded in 1903 the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), which used militant tactics to agitate for women's suffrage. Its members were known as suffragettes. Pankhurst was imprisoned many times, but supported the war effort after World War I broke out. Parliament granted British women limited suffrage in 1918. Pankhurst died in 1928, shortly before women were given full voting rights.

Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928)

As a young girl, Malala Yousafzai defied the Taliban in Pakistan and demanded that girls be allowed to receive an education. She was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman in 2012 but survived. In 2013, she gave a speech to the United Nations and published her first book, I Am Malala. In 2014, she became the youngest person to receive the Nobel Peace Prize.

Malala Yousafzai (1997)

Marie Curie (1867-1934)

Simone Veil was a French politician and champion of women’s rights. Active in French politics from the 1950s, she is famous for legalising abortion in France in 1975, and for becoming the first elected President of the European Parliament. As one of the most popular politicians in France, she guaranteed many fundamental rights for women, and throughout her political career, acted with dignity, courage and moral conviction.

Greta Thunberg is a Swedish climate youth activist who has received worldwide recognition for her efforts to fight climate change. She sparked an international movement to fight climate change beginning in 2018. With the simple message "School strike for climate" handwritten on poster board, Thunberg began skipping school on Fridays and protesting outside the Swedish Parliament. Thanks to social media, her actions have spread and influenced millions of young people all over the world to organize demonstrations and protest.

Greta Thunberg (2003-)

“For more than 30 years, the science has been crystal clear. How dare you continue to look away and come here saying that you're doing enough, when the politics and solutions needed are still nowhere in sight.” —Greta Thunberg
