Matilde Hidalgo is a seriously cool kid. This is probs one of my favourites from #RebelVoices! 🖤💚🌴🌿💚🖤Branded a troublemaker, Matilde sparked her first scandal when she persuaded the director of her high school to offer her a place, a privilege until then enjoyed only by boys. Horrified mothers banned their daughters from befriending her and Matilde braved a daily gauntlet of insults on her way to school. Even her local priest tried to humiliate her into submission by making her listen to services two paces outside the church door. These cruel attacks wounded Matilde, but also drove her on. She became the first female doctor in Ecuador, and aspired to open doors for other women too. Her chance came when she discovered that although no woman had ever voted, it was not actually illegal for them to do so. Walking tall, she entered a polling station in 1924, sweeping past outraged officials who could do nothing to stop her. @hachettekids @wrenandrookbook @foylesforbooks @waterstones #equador #matildehidalgo #southamerica #womensvote #pictureoftheday #art #illustration #jungleillustration #church #palmtree #girlsatschool #educationforgirls #leanin #changetheratio #girlsrising #womenshould #ask4more #notbuyingit #wearesilent #imagirl #banbossy #letgirlslearn #geenaongender #allinforher #heforshe #girlscharge #girlscount

“I am a strong 💪🏾 woman. I don’t sit around feeling sorry for myself, nor let people mistreat me. I don’t respond to people who dictate to me or try to bring me down. If I fall I will rise up even stronger because I am a survivor and not a victim. I am in control of my life and there is nothing I can’t achieve.” #leanin #changetheratio #ask4more #notbuyingit #mediawelike #girlrising #banbossy #iamgirl #womenshould

Major gems on why you should ask for more during negotiations! What are some of your favorite negotiation tips? Please share. #Ask4More by @badassboz The #africanprint skits tho 👀 A few months ago, when @gayleking asked me about salary negotiation strategies on @cbsthismorning, I didn’t shy away from the point... GIVE THE NUMBER FIRST, and MAKE IT HIGH AS HELL. We will demand our worth. Oh, but you’re not off the hook, white men... you need to demand on our behalf too.

Every day I proclaim my pride in being a black woman, but it’s shameful that today we still have to demand to be paid like white men. I’ve made it no secret that until we are at parity, we need to #Ask4More.

We have work to do and we promise we won't stop until we've achieved #equality.
