Episode description
If you've seen the Black Panther movie, then you are familiar with the Dora Milaje, the elite all-woman warriors tasked with protecting the king, the throne and the kingdom. Well, these bad ass on-screen sisters are based on some bad ass off-screen sisters, the Dahomey Amazons of current-day Benin, Africa. As we wind up Women's History Month, we end on a high note. Be inspired.
