Born #OnThisDay in 1924, Shirley Chisholm was the first African American woman elected to Congress and the first Black candidate from a major party to run for president of the United States. Chisholm carved out new roles for Black women in politics, proclaiming herself “unbought and unbossed” as she sought reforms to inequities based on race, gender, and class.
