Volume 4: Modern Women of the
Diaspora
— Forthcoming

"Ancient African Queens is a feast for the mind, ears, and eyes, and easily accessible to students of all levels and the public in general. I highly recommend this book of deserved praise and homage to the African woman for the classroom, the library, and in every home."
—Ifi Amadiume, Dartmouth College

"The author of this book, Simone Schwarz-Bart, has compiled a priceless source of valuable information, which will provide the building blocks for reintroducing the contributions of Black Women to a multitude of fields of study and disciplines."
—Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX)

"This book will be in demand particularly during the months devoted to Black History and Women's History. An invaluable and fascinating resource."
School Library Journal

"Not only is it a work of art—it is immensely enjoyable."
—Julian Bond, Chairman, NAACP National Board of Directors

"A treasure!"
Ruby Dee
