National Geographic would be celebrating Nigerian novelist and feminism icon Chimamanda Adichie alongside other influential female in its latest magazine issue.
Among other women to be celebrated are Opera Winfrey, American talk show host and media executive; Melinda Gates, philanthropist and co-founder of Melinda Gates Foundation; and Michelle Obama, former US first lady.
The issue, titled ‘Women’: The National Geographic Image Collection’, is written to mark the one hundred anniversary of the United States’ constitutional amendment confirming the right of women to vote.
The Magazine, which is to be released on October 22, 2019, would be the first issue to be written and published by Susan Goldberg, the magazine’s first female editorial director.
