Black women have accomplished a lot this year. From getting ourselves and others elected officials into office, to serving as the catalyst for the #MeToo movement, where hundreds of women have been able to finally come forward with their own stories of sexual assault. And oh, did we mention our national treasures, Tiffany Haddish and Cardi B? One who has overcome insurmountable obstacles to achieve comedy success, while the engineered Instagram fame into reality TV stardom into a poppin’ rap career? Needless to say, there’s nothing a black woman can’t do. And when black women aren’t off running the world, we’re plotting for world domination at home and at work. To celebrate your girl boss bestie this year, here are a few gifts that will make her feel appreciated and celebrated for all that she does each day.
