"Born in West Africa, Adbaraya Toya was one of Dahomey's legendary female warriors. Kidnapped and sold into slavery in the French colony of Saint-Domingue, she became a healer and an authority figure for the enslaved. Among the motherless children she helped raise was the revolutionary Jean-Jacques Dessalines. When the enslaved people rose up, Toya was at the forefront of the rebellion that changed the course of history. A free woman of color, Marie-Claire Bonheur was raised with privilege and security in a society steeped in racial and economic injustices. Falling in love with Jean-Jacques Dessalines, an enslaved man, was never the plan, yet their paths continued to cross and intertwine. Despite their differences, the two women join forces, bringing tremendous courage and resilience to the revolution, along with countless other women whose stories have been overlooked."--Page 4 of cover.
