Sesheta was a female scribe in ancient Egypt, known as 'lady of the house of books.' She was the goddess of writing, libraries, and measurement. Sesheta.net is a library of Africana women's autobiographies from all parts of the diaspora. Historical and contemporary women's voices in this online collection create a diverse human chorus. This free reference database connects readers to global memoirs and highlights resources like dissertations, journal articles, book reviews, and videos that enhance learning about Africana women in all times and places. These narratives instruct readers on how to interpret complex Black women's lives and this vast collection of life writing points the way to record new stories for the future.
