Critically acclaimed storyteller Queen Nur creates indellible portraits of seven pioneering, brave African-American women: Sojourner Truth, Maria Stewart, Frances Harper, Cathy Williams, Ida B. Wells, Mary Church Terrell and Mary McLeod Bethune. Voices of Courage: Profiles of 19th Century African-American Women is a stirring historical program of stories and music.

African-American storyteller Queen Nur (also known as Karen Abdul-Malik) of Willingboro, New Jersey, is a graduate of Northwestern University, and received a Specialization in Dispute Resolution Certificate from Harvard Law School. Queen Nur has performed extensively for thousands of children and adults at schools, libraries, museums, churches, festivals and special events. Her association with Theatreworks USA began in 2002.
