Karen Anderson will take participants on a walk through history, starting with women of color in 1760 French America who freed themselves from slavery, only to be bound by government laws, to women like Sarah Baartman who had to choose between being a circus oddity or a slave. She will also discuss how women like Sarah Breedlove and Ann Malone changed the way women of African descent saw themselves and how these women redefined beauty.
