We're getting "PUNK"-y this week and talking about the front woman of the punk band X-ray Spex.

Today's woman was known by many names: Mama Africa, the Empress of African Song, and Zenzi (her African name that was a gift from her mother).

When selecting women to share during our tribute to International Holocaust Remembrance Day, I found so many who were worth learning about and celebrating. I chose Hannah Szenes for this week's episode because I was really touched by her laser-focus on doing what she could. She never thought of her own safety. She was tough and strong and fearless. She wanted to be a poet and live a simple, quiet, peaceful life. Instead, she ran to help and acknowledged that even if her mission was unsuccessful,
