Journalist Norah O’Donnell’s upcoming book We the Women: The Hidden Heroes Who Shaped America unveils overlooked female trailblazers from Mary Katharine Goddard, who printed the first signed Declaration of Independence, to the Forten women, early Black abolitionists and suffragists as part of a broader effort to rewrite American history through their lens. O’Donnell describes the project as a “treasure hunt” and a passion project born from her own limited education on women’s roles in U.S. history, aiming to inspire readers, especially young girls, by showcasing the courage of these “true revolutionaries”.
