Women's History Month - a Jamaican Heroine's Story

I came across this article recently and thought I would share it. Nanny of the Maroons: History, Memory, and Imagery by Kimberly Juanita Brown. This is an interesting read about Nanny, a former slave, rebel, and military leader in the fight against slavery in Jamaica.  http://www.yale.edu/glc/nanny.htm If you come across any others, please share the link.
