Mississippi Black Women's Roundtable

Today, we reflect on the legacy of another remarkable Black Southern woman in the Civil Rights Movement – Septima Clark, known as the 'Mother of the Movement.' Her commitment to education and voter registration changed the lives of so many. Let’s honor her memory by continuing her work. #CivilRightsHero #SouthernWomenLeaders #BlackHistory #LegacyOfChange #BlackWomensHistoryMonth

So why does the Mississippi Black Women’s Round Table attend the Black Women’s Roundtable’s Annual Women of Power National Summit each year? In a word? Empowerment. Our leadership, along with our youth, walk away with not just a feeling of sisterhood, but keep problem-solving that black women leaders, to include our youth, can take back to their communities. #MSBWR #BlackWomenLead #blackexcellence #14thAnnualWomenofPowerNationalSummit #womensupportingwomen #womenrights #womenempoweringwomen
