This 7 year old girl just reminded the world of something important: You can stumble, crash, fall behind & still finish strong! The race isn’t over when you fall. It’s over when you stop getting back up! This little girl’s determination is the kind of inspiration we all need! #SheShed #GirlPower

Sister Rosetta Tharpe (born Rosetta Nubin, March 20, 1915 – October 9, 1973) was an American gospel singer, guitarist, and songwriter celebrated as the Godmother of Rock & Roll. #GirlPower #RadicalWomen #BlackHistoryMonth
Sister Rosetta Tharpe (born Rosetta Nubin, March 20, 1915 – October 9, 1973) was an American gospel singer, guitarist, and songwriter celebrated as the Godmother of Rock & Roll. Blending sacred lyrics with rhythmic electric guitar, she bridged gospel and secular styles, shaping the early sound of rock music and influencing icons such as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Chuck Berry. Raised by her evangelist mother, Katie Bell Nubin, Tharpe began performing in the Church of God in Christ at age four. By her teens she was touring revival circuits across the South. Moving to Chicago and then New York City, she absorbed blues and jazz sounds that would later inform her pioneering electric-guitar style. In 1938 she signed with Decca Records and released “Rock Me,” establishing herself as the first gospel artist to achieve mainstream commercial success. Tharpe fused vocals with driving swing-band arrangements, creating a rhythmic style that presaged rock and roll. Her 1944 recording “Strange Things Happening Every Day,” cut with pianist Sammy Price, became the first gospel single to reach the top 10 on Billboard’s race (R&B) chart and is often cited as a candidate for the first rock-and-roll record. Her flamboyant stage presence, technical guitar prowess, and boundary-crossing repertoire inspired later performers from Little Richard to Eric Clapton. Tharpe continued performing until her death from a stroke in 1973. Posthumous honors include induction into the Blues Hall of Fame (2007) and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (2018). Modern tributes include the PBS American Masters documentary Sister Rosetta Tharpe: The Godmother of Rock & Roll and Gayle Wald’s biography Shout, Sister, Shout!

In an era that has returned to tearing down strong, visionary women, I'm going to start posting about women who changed history. I'll start with Grace Hopper, because I'm "standing on her code". #GirlPower
Grace Hopper once dismantled a Navy computer with a screwdriver — just to prove it wasn’t “too complicated” for a woman to understand. Then she rewired the entire future of computing. She was 37 when she joined the U.S. Navy during World War II. Too old, too thin, and far too bold — they said no at first. She kept showing up. Eventually, they handed her a uniform and a problem: the Mark I computer. It filled an entire room, made strange clanking noises, and no one fully understood how it worked. Hopper didn’t just understand it — she taught it to speak English. At a time when programming meant punching holes in cards and speaking only in machine code, Grace Hopper believed computers should serve humans, not the other way around. She invented the first compiler — a translator that let people write instructions in plain English. That idea became COBOL, the first widely adopted programming language for business. It still powers banks and systems today.
She coined the term “debugging” after pulling a literal moth out of a malfunctioning machine. But it wasn’t a joke — it was a metaphor for her career. Find the glitch. Fix it. Move forward. Grace Hopper stayed in the Navy until she was 79. She gave her final interview in uniform, sharp as ever, holding up a tiny piece of wire that represented a nanosecond. “This is how far light travels in one-billionth of a second,” she said. “Now you have no excuse to be slow.” She was rebellious, relentless, and wildly ahead of her time. They called her “Amazing Grace.” She preferred Admiral. Ever use a computer? You’re standing on her code.

Mary Ann Bickerdyke (1817–1901), affectionately known as “Mother Bickerdyke,” was a fearless and compassionate Civil War nurse who became a beloved figure among Union soldiers. #GirlPower #RadicalWomen
Mary Ann Bickerdyke (1817–1901), affectionately known as “Mother Bickerdyke,” was a fearless and compassionate Civil War nurse who became a beloved figure among Union soldiers. A trained herbalist and widow, she volunteered her services early in the war and soon became known for her relentless efforts to improve sanitation and care in military hospitals. Bickerdyke worked alongside the U.S. Sanitary Commission, traveling with Union armies through some of the war’s toughest campaigns. She set up more than 300 field hospitals and was known for her no-nonsense attitude—frequently challenging army bureaucracy and even generals to ensure wounded soldiers received proper treatment. When a military officer once complained about her authority, General Sherman famously replied, “She outranks me.” After the war, Bickerdyke continued advocating for veterans, helping former soldiers and nurses secure pensions and housing. Her legacy is that of a determined humanitarian who brought dignity, healing, and fierce advocacy to the battlefield.

Claudette Colvin (born 1939), a courageous African American teenager who refused to give up her bus seat in Montgomery, Alabama, nine months before Rosa Parks. #GirlPower #RadicalWomen
Claudette Colvin (born 1939) was a courageous African American teenager whose refusal to give up her bus seat in Montgomery, Alabama, nine months before Rosa Parks. Colvin was handcuffed, arrested, and forcibly removed from the bus while shouting that her constitutional rights were being violated. This event marked an important early act of resistance against racial segregation. Colvin was a member of the NAACP Youth Council and had been learning about the civil rights movement in school. At just 15 years old, Colvin’s bold stand challenged the entrenched Jim Crow laws of the South and helped set the stage for the Montgomery Bus Boycott. Despite her bravery, Colvin did not receive the same public recognition at the time, partly due to her youth and the fact that she was unmarried and pregnant. Nevertheless, she became one of the four plaintiffs in the landmark legal case Browder v. Gayle, which ultimately led to the Supreme Court ruling that segregation on public buses was unconstitutional. In 2021, the record of Colvin's arrest and adjudication of delinquency was expunged by the district court in the county where the charges against her had been brought more than 66 years earlier. Colvin’s story is a powerful reminder that the Civil Rights Movement was shaped by many activists, not just the most famous figures. Her act of resistance has been memorialized in poetry, books, songs, TV, a children’s picture book, and a biopic.
