“There are not many males, black or white, who wish to get involved with a woman who's committed to her own development” - Eleanor Holmes Norton
Born June 13, 1937, this mover and shaker of patriarchial and socio-econmomic hindrances is a Delegate to Congress representing the District of Columbia. In her position, Eleanor Holmes Norton is able to serve on and vote with committees, as well as speak from the House floor. However, she is not permitted to vote on final passage of any legislation because she is not a full member of Congress. In the early 1970s, Eleanor Holmes Norton was a signer of the Black Woman’s Manifesto, a classic document of the Black feminist movement. (Source)
