I liked your song choice, and there were quite a few great moments that synched actions and lyrics. But with only a couple of exceptions, your women of power were overwhelmingly white. It would have been interesting to see a more diverse crowd, had you included more women of color.

[Viorica8957]

I know.:/ I wanted to include more- Harriet Tubman, Lili'uokalani, Nzingha, Nefertiti- but there either aren't any movies featuring them, or the clips are impossible to find.

[12Weirdogirl]

Do you know who made this song? Thanks:D

[Viorica8957]

Christina Aguilera and Li'l Kim.

[LadyLBlack]

who was at 0:36, 1:09, 2:25?

[Viorica8957]

0:36 was Esther, 1:09 was Queen Victoria, and 2:25 was Mary Bryant

[FantasmaLuna]

Very strong! I'm surprised you didn't put in Catherine of Aragon or the Brontë sisters, but still what a tribute to the great women of history!

[EileenMorr]

Well done.

[loveshistory012]

[ItsMoriashkiBitches]
