About this audiobook

Informative audiobook celebrating the words and wisdom of 30 influential women of colour

Follow the life lessons of 30 remarkable women of colour - past and present - who have made their mark on society and culture.

"When you are struggling and you start thinking about giving up, I want you to remember something... and that is the power of hope." - Michelle Obama (White House speech, 2017)

We Go High brings together the inspiring stories, motivational quotes, and personal philosophies of 30 influential women of colour who have sought to overcome challenges of gender and race.

Including political powerhouses such as Kamala Harris, Michelle Obama, and Iriaka Ratana, as well as badass businesswomen like Netflix CMO Bozoma Saint John, and writers Michaela Coel and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. We Go High not only celebrates their achievements but uncovers the personal beliefs, attitudes, and determination that drive them.

From feminist activists to scientists, each woman's story is different - but all have in common a deep-seated resilience to fight against the prejudices and barriers to success that women of colour face on a daily basis.
