African Nobel Laureates. SJ Dodgson. MJoTA 2011. v5n2 p1007

In the early years of the 21st century, Liberian women reached across the church and mosque aisles and ended the bloody war and elected a woman president, and how that woman is kicking butt today. They were recognized in a film (Walt Disney's niece was one of those making it) and they are turning Liberia around, President Ellen is making everyone behave.

Two African women from Liberia won Nobel Prizes for their efforts on October 7, 2011, President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Leymah Gbowee along with a Middle East Arab woman from Yemen, Tawakkul Karman.
