Malala Yousafzai is a 15 year old student and education activist from Mingora, Khyber Pakhtunkwa, Pakistan. Still only a young teenager, Malala is already a seasoned women’s rights activist.<\/strong> Her blog about her life under Taliban rule was published by the BBC under a pseudonym when she was 11 and 12 . It followed her struggle to be educated as a female under Taliban rule.\u00a0In a world long terrorized by violence and enslavement of women, Malala demanded her rights to be an educated human being.\u00a0Sexism isn’t a war against women, it’s \u00a0war against humanity.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Malala was shot in the head on her way home from school by Taliban extremists in October of 2012. She was treated in a United Kingdom hospital and was released into the care of her parents last week. The world prays for her full recovery.<\/p>\n

She is strength, courage, and truth. She is woman.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chief Theresa Spense of the Attawapiskat Nation, started the Idle no More<\/strong><\/em> movement in late 2012 with a hunger strike to protest Bill c-45 and the changes to the Indian Act.\u00a0The Idle No More movement believes the bill threatens treaty rights with the changes it makes to Canadian waterways. Theresa Spense has the courage to take on the federal government to save her people, her country. She commands the world to take notice of the unjustness being committed within a “just” nation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

67th United States Secretary of State. Hilary has never taken a back seat to any man. As her daughter gained independence, Hilary forged ahead in her own career despite several set backs. She has remained true to her words and political vision. She commands respect and grace like no other current politician we know.<\/strong> She would make a great American president.<\/p>\n

Buddhist Nun, Tibetan meditation master, author, Pema Ch\u00f6dr\u00f6n\u00a0is resident teacher at Gampo Abbey, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia– the first Tibetan Monastery established in North America for Westerners. Pema Ch\u00f6dr\u00f6n\u00a0has risen to be a top teacher\/leader of a spirituality\/religion long dominated by men. She speaks, she writes and people listen. She has lived a full life that most Buddhist monastics have not; she has been a wife and is a mother. She has taken ancient philosophy and presented it in the truth in which is was meant to be: without sexism.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Judy Dench plays the character M16<\/em> in James Bond films from 1995-2012. Most tragically, M dies in the movie Skyfall<\/em>. Judy Dench (as M) has been a true inspiration to women \u00a0everywhere. She is the only person who can turn James Bond into a sniveling school boy.<\/strong> \u00a0She emanates true leadership, power and grace through out one of the most misogynistic movie series that continues to exist today.\u00a0She is strength. \u00a0No man can ever match such true leadership and no man will ever be able to fill her matriarchal shoes.\u00a0As talented an actor as Ralph Fiennes is, he just doesn’t have the ovaries for it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

*Will women be able to watch another Bond without her? \u00a0Dang…rats and phooey… Daniel Craig<\/em>!<\/em><\/strong> James Bond is lucky to have found Daniel–he’s too hot to keep the women away.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
