In this article we outline the importance of centering Black women as critical historical actors within social studies curricula and teaching. We explored the ways in which Black women were represented throughout 38 secondary lesson plans within the fully online National Women's History Museum and discussed how traditional curricular content and tasks can erase or diminish the power, agency, and nuanced experiences of Black women in the past. We conclude by offering resources to challenge these narratives and to encourage all educators to honor the complexity of all women's lives.
