Imagine waking up every morning to behold the illustrated face of an African superwoman and Shero, silently urging you to get up on your feet and become awesome like her. Just imagine it for a minute.
Thankfully, Onyinye Iwu is making this possible for women by creating a 2017 Calendar from the Queens of Africa series – a series where she designed one image and 100 words to describe every woman who has inspired, shaped and changed the continent for the better.queens of africa calendar
