Today, September 15th, would have been Elma Lewis’ 96th birthday. In honor of Miss Lewis, and in gratitude for the powerful legacy she has left for us, we are proud to announce that the full Hidden Figures Syllabus document is complete and available for download! You can also access it on the online reader here.

The project has taken months of research, curation, and careful reflection, and includes a list of texts and other resources by and about Black women and femmes from around the African diaspora.

We are still accepting contributions of other creative and scholarly works, and more “Hidden Figures” you feel deserve recognition and celebration. Your submissions will help us to keep the blog running and to ensure that this project has a rich continuing life.
