Welcome to the season six finale! On today's episode, we go out with a bang and discuss Queen Nzinga, one of the most badass African warrior queens in history. Nzinga was trained to be a warrior and a diplomate from the time she was small, which came in handy when negotiating with the Portuguese at first for her wimp of an older brother and even more so when she became queen in her own right. Nzinga had a massive effect on her kingdom and the modern country of Angola, which still views her as a proud part of their history. Join me on this episode to hear her story.

Then Brenda and Shireen interview Ann Odong, expert on all things women's soccer and editor of The Women's Game (http://thewomensgame.com), about the UEFA Women's EURO 2017 soccer tournament.
