Resilient Grace: Spotlighting the black women history forgot

PEARLAND, Texas (KTRK) — Through her brand, Resilient Grace, Kyra Brown is highlighting Black women who have shaped history but whose stories have often gone untold.

“I noticed that outside of big figures like Rosa Parks and Harriet Tubman, a lot of black women’s stories have been left out of our history books,” Brown shared.

To help share their stories, Brown features black female heroines on t-shirts. They are designed to spark conversation and recognition. With every shirt, customers also receive a postcard that tells the story of the woman it honors, offering a deeper understanding of her impact. Brown also shares their stories on TikTok.

“I use my platform to tell black women’s history and to hopefully influence more women to learn her story, share her story, but also to be inspired to go after their own dreams,” Brown said.

In the video above, Brown shares how she decides on which woman to feature and the special meaning behind the name Resilient Grace.
