The Necklace That Flies: Honoring Maggie Gee and the Legacy of Powerful Women
At a time when Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs are being eliminated or silenced, our stories become even more vital. They are living proof that history is more than a single narrative—that courage, brilliance, and service have always come from all walks of life.

We must keep telling these stories. Because when systems try to erase them, it’s our voices, our memories, and our sharing that keep truth alive.
"You can make changes. I think just one small person can make a little bit of change." – Maggie Gee
