By Yesha Callahan & Britni Danielle & Kellee Terrell · October 28, 2019

Welcome to Essence’s 2019 Woke 100. This year’s list includes women who exemplify the true meaning of being change agents and power players. Working in areas from social justice to politics to entertainment, they inspire not only us here but also others around the world. Although the list is numbered, which is not indicative of a ranking and stops at 94, there are 100 women being honored.

Philly’s own Maori Karmael Holmes, founder of BLACKSTAR FILM FESTIVAL made #25 on the list!
