This year's Women of the Year Awards was held at Carnegie Hall in New York City.
With Rihanna being steadily in the spotlight lately, it's not hard to believe that she was an honoree. You can't deny that she has a great fashion sense and has been put to the forefront of the fight against domestic violence.
Serena Williams, another honoree, has done so much, not just for African American women , but for all women in sports! She is also a fashion designer. Her Serena Williams Foundation has also opened a secondary school in Kenya.
Then there is Susan Rice. She is the first African American woman to hold the title US Ambassador to the United Nations. Her latest acheivement is getting the U.N to enforce a zero tolerance policy on sexual violence.
Maya Angelou was also an honoree. She is one the greatest poets in the world!
First Lady Michelle Obama received honorable mention.
