Created Equal is a narrative of women’s journey from subjugation to emancipation, based on religious history. The book discusses the moving power behind women’s progress in recent times and highlights the lives of distinguished women in the Babi Faith and early history of the Baha’i Faith. Created Equal includes the names of the nature of the services rendered by a small contingent of women covered in the Baha’i history books, as well as the names of some who served the Faith with distinction but left little trace.

Review This Product
Religious prophecies throughout history have converged on a common expectation; the advent of a world redeemer who will fulfill the ultimate destiny of humankind. This book is written to illuminate the station of Táhirih – a leading heroine of the Bábí movement – as the Trumpeter of the Day of Resurrection and the Remover of the Veil from the advent of the Promised One.

Hazel Scott was a champion for civil and women’s rights. Born in Trinidad in 1920, she moved with her family to the United States in 1924. She was a musical wonder— studying and performing on the piano from the time she was a child. She became an accomplished singer as well, and appeared in Broadway musicals, films, and recorded her own albums. She also made headlines by standing up for the rights of women and African Americans, and she refused to play for segregated audiences. When Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. led the March on Washington, Hazel led a march in Paris, where she was living, in front of the American Embassy. She learned about the Bahá’í Faith from Dizzy Gillespie and became a Bahá’í on December 1, 1968. She passed away in 1981.
We invite you to learn more about this “Change Maker” and the enduring impact she had on race relations through her performing arts.

The Calling
by Hussein Ahdieh and Hillary Chapman describes Tahirih in a fresh, new
manner, juxtaposing and interweaving her life and work with that of her
American contemporaries—women whose existence she was probably not aware
of, but who shared with her a spiritual bond and vision of progress and
justice.

Rejoice in My Gladness is a biography of one of the leading feminists, Tahirih, of the 1800s. The book tells how she began teaching the equality between men and women in largely Muslim Persia and how she was eventually martyred for her outspokenness and courage in the face of the male governing establishment in Persia.

In the tradition of Joseph Campbell, these stories employ many of the moral virtues found in every religion. The heroes in each tale strive to reshape and improve the world around them, showing the qualities of the heroic female spirit at work.
