When I think of “defiant”, I think of Amelia Earhart. Not only was she the first woman to fly across the Atlantic, she also defied gravity! There weren’t many female pilots in those days. She paved the way for a new generation of female pilots.

Thanks for this blog and the invitation to comment and contribute O.G.!

I would like to salute all mothers as defiant women who rule the world. From the cradle they raised their children against all possible and even seemingly impossible odds. They gave us life and taught us how to live our lives on this earth and beyond. All mothers are heroes.

Lets go to the unsung heroes of our times – of course non other than my mother who’s love, dedication and affection cannot be measured by anything in this world.

For me, the late president Corazon Aquino of the Philippines. For restoring democracy to the Filipino people and fighting for human rights. She is indeed a remarkable woman. I salute and admire her work.

Thanks for your kind words, Kaycee and everyone! Keep the comments coming…

Who are the women (famous or not) that have achieved great feats against all odds? What women support and inspire you?

Sultana! I do remember the name! You are right to mention her in here. She is a great topic to discuss. She is the girl in the Princess Story – a book about the life of Muslim women in the Middle East.

Hello, this is a great article on Defiant Women. Indeed you are a great writer Ogbata. It’s great to see that even though you’ve finished your book, you’re still continuing to spread your words through this blog. A push, this is. A push towards women being understood by the world more thoroughly.

Sultana… The name does sound familiar but I might also be wrong because as you said, its just her pen name. What is it with her for you to admire her here?

Defiance… That’s a unique description but its really cool. Another defiant woman that I believe we have not mentioned, would probably be Sultana… Familiar? Sultana is actually not the real name of our hero here but her pen name. But once you remember her, you’ll understand how courageous she is even though we’re not able to use her real name.

“Obviously its not his wife’s name and I’m not really familiar with India.”

I mean Indira by the way, not India. (Typo)

Indira Gandhi? I sure remember Mahatma Gandhi by hearing that. Obviously its not his wife’s name and I’m not really familiar with India. Would you please share here what defiance did she show for you to mention her here?

It takes a lot to defy the odds, but confidence and courage are the foundation for it.

A defiant woman for me was/is Indira Gandhi.

If it weren’t for defiant women, we would not have the right to vote, have a job, be independent and maybe books like yours would have no place in our society.

Thank you Ogo Ogbata and all the women who stood up for other women.
