TAYTU HI-LO TOP
Tumblr media
Taytu Betul (above)
Named after Taytu Betul (Queen and Empress - Ethiopia)
We always want to celebrate women that stand up for whole nations, and who played a role in the added freedom we as African’s enjoy today. We still have a long way to go, but women like Taytu set the pace and standard for generations to follow. We applaud her strategic nature, a characteristic that is a true reflection of why we as women today are a force to be reckoned with because we do it with such grace.

TEASERS ABOUT TAYTU BETUL
She used her exceptional intelligence to strengthen and extend her power through a blend of patronage, political marriages and leadership craft. She defeated the Italians by organizing strategic fighting. To this day, she remains a linguistic legend in Italy. The phrase “Chi si crede di essere, la regina Taitu?” (“Who does she think she is, the Empress Taytu?”) is still used to describe women who act like they’re above their station. She is evidence that women hold within themselves the strength to rise and become powerful and be remembered for centuries. When one woman rises, we all rise.
