Representation in popular media has been a hot topic in recent times. Although she did not have a traditional education, #LouisaMayAlcott was taught by her parents and even studied under philosopher Henry David Thoreau. Alcott was also famously part of the Women’s Suffrage movement, making her one of the most important figures of the 19th century. So when you see a female protagonist in your favorite movie or TV show, give the nod to Louisa May Alcott, who paved the way for strong female representation! #OnQFinancial #WomensHistoryMonth #WomensHistory #StrongWomen
