Historians have pointed out that Joan of Arc didn't lead directly: she denied calling herself a commander, and the Royal military records and eyewitness accounts show that there was always a nobleman in command. Some of the nobles said they asked her for advice because they believed she was Divinely inspired, but she didn't have a command position. And she didn't defy convention: there were many medieval mystics and religious visionaries who were consulted for advice by leaders in that era, and that's the role she held. She wasn't a rebel for the same reason: her stated goal was to place her king on his throne.

Rosa Parks no doubt was a boss in her own right buttttttt, her refusal to give up her seat was planned by civil rights leaders ( Martin Luther King and company) the actual pioneer of that bossed up move was a 15yr old black girl named Claudette Colvin! The Civil rights leaders figured she was too young to lead the cause and be the face of the movement, so they recruited Rosa Parks! Give credit where its due!

If you really know history you should have never forgotten the bravery of these five women Sanite Belair, Catherine Flon, Claire Heureuse, Cecil Fatiman and Dede Bazile. These are the five bad ass female who fought in the Haitian Revolution to help Haiti become the world's first free black Republic.

#2 correction: white American women were given the vote. Not American women. And margaret sanger was a eugenicist whose whole foundation surrounding birth control started as a way to stop blacks from reproducing, and she shouldn't be celebrated.

Margaret Sanger? She was a huge eugenics follower, she believed in birth control because she thought the country was becoming too dark and felt it was the best way to stop this was to stop the darker people from breeding. Not someone exactly to admire!

Claudette Colvin was first one to do that, not Rosa Parks!
She did it 9 months before Rosa, she was just 15 years old.
But NAACP did not want to use her to represent their organization because she was young and pregnant.

Rosa Parks doesnt deserve to be on this list. She wasnt the first person to refuse to give up her seatClaudette Colvin was. She was planted by MLK to stir the pit because she was lighter and cake from a better background.

African queen khandis brought Time to it's knees. She is said to have had their leaders head buried under her doorstep so she could walk over him all the time. She had one eye.

Claudette Colvin was the first woman to refuse to give up her bus seat. Not Rosa Parks. The NAACP used Claudette's idea for Rosa. Sad that people don't know.

I'll give Joan of Arc #1 for Warriors but for this list I would choose Harriet Tubman for the top spot and Catherine the Great the top spot for the Leaders list.

women who date 6' tall guys are the modern day sheep doing whatever the mainstream media tells them.

Margaret Sanger was a fan of eugenics. I think she could've been replaced by someone else like Reba or Sophie Scholl; one of honorable mentions

CORRECTION: In 1920 white women were given the right to vote. Not ALL women. Black women were not given the right until MANY years later!

Joana D'arc, an humble woman who gaved her life for God. She's a Saint, not a feminist. If she was a feministn, shouldn't be a Saint

Curious why you picked Alice Paul over Emmeline Pankhurst, since the latter spent time in jail as well. The forced feeding?

Sophie Scholl certainly deserves more than an honorable mention. She bravely faced the guillotine for resisting Nazism.
