This woman is fearless- a woman that I know truly loves her people and is apologetically Black.

Helen Higginbotham has a brilliant mind and has used her voice and membership in The Association of Black Women of NJ to pursue “real change” and not surface changes that benefit the privileged and positioned. Ms. Higgi, thanks for being a voice in the wilderness, educating people on history and challenging us to confront the truth.

I am happy she was one of ABWL-NJ’s 2020 Revolutionary Thinker honorees.
