The Mic Drop Heard ‘Round the Archive: A Reedsy Review of History Waits to Be Heard
📚 The Mic Drop Heard ‘Round the Archive
“History class got a feminist reboot. Forgotten women rise, patriarchy cries. Darren Palmer understood the assignment.”
— Robin Ginther-Venneri, Reedsy Discovery
This quote opens the first official review of History Waits to Be Heard — and I’m still taking it in.
Robin didn’t just get the point of the book — she felt it. Here are just a few highlights from the review:
- “A mic drop aimed squarely at the dusty, dude-heavy narratives…”
- “Burn my old history books.”
- “Equality Without Distinction is revolutionary. I know.”
- “Women doing things men got statues for.”
I wrote this book to challenge old stories and amplify the ones long ignored. To see someone respond like this? It means everything.
