Summary
This project was made to provide iconic female revolutionary heroes and to "transfer that Che glamour onto the revolutionary struggles of women." It includes stylized stencils of some well-known and not-so-well-known female revolutionaries, as well as full-page bios of their lives and contributions to feminism and political struggle. Many of the revolutionaries are non-white and/or from other countries: Harriet Tubman, Louise Michel, Vera Zasulich, Emma Goldman, Qiu Jin (Ch'iu Chin), Nora Connolly O'Brien, Lucia Sanchez Saornil, Eva Ricard, Angela Davis, Leila Khaled, Comandante Ramona, and Phoolan Devi.
