Dr. Melina Abdullah is an original member of Black Lives Matter and the staunchest and most public critic of the LAPD. She recently faced a year in prison for allegedly touching an LAPD officer, a very scary situation, but she fought through it. She is one of the freest people I know and one of the fiercest activists I’ve ever met. She’s amazing. Let me know what you think. Twitter: @toure.

She is one of the great musicians of her era, a woman who Ava Duvernay calls “a goddess.” She’s a brilliant funk and soul singer/songwriter/bass player who’s also now scoring Queen Sugar. She started the neo-soul movement that gave you D’Angelo, Erykah, Lauryn, Maxwell, and them. And she’s an amazing person who’s been through a lot. She’s a phenomenal woman who I’m proud to call a friend. Twitter: @toure.

Jodie Patterson wrote one of the great books of the year—The Bold World, a beautiful and gripping memoir that turns at the moment her three year-old tells her, “I don’t feel like a boy, I am a boy.” From that moment she evolves into a fierce advocate for him and trans people everywhere. She’s an amazing woman. Twitter: @toure.
