Queen Latifah

Dana Elaine Owens, who goes by the stage name, Queen Latifah, is a force to be reckoned with in 21st-century music- rap music, to be precise. Her debut album alone soared the charts, and over 1 million copies of it were sold all around the world. When she won a Grammy for her hit single U.N.I.T.Y, people knew that this Queen was going to rule the industry!

But the fascinating fact is how Queen Latifa resembles this woman from the early 20th century named Zora Neale Hurston, who also happened to be a feminist, an advocate, and a driven lady who stood her ground about minority groups getting their rights!
