25 Under 25: Women of Color to Watch

The next generation has arrived. 

She the People is celebrating Women’s History Month by looking to the future. This list highlights just 25 of the young women and girls of color who are changing the cultural and political landscape. They have roots across the country, from battleground states like North Carolina, Georgia, and Ohio to sites of historic struggle like Hawai’i and South Central Los Angeles.

These women and girls aren’t just full of potential. They are wielding their power to shape our country’s future. They are leaders to watch, to learn from, and to follow. With a diverse array of tactics like documentary filmmaking, community organizing, social media, and photography, they are eschewing the old playbook and forging a new way forward. The next generation of leaders have arrived. Let’s meet them.
