Sadie Alexander, the first black woman economist. She became the first Black woman in the U.S. to earn a doctorate degree in economics in 1921.

Sadie came from a family with a rich history of academic achievement. Her father was the first black American to graduate from the University of Pennsylvania Law School. One uncle was the first black American to graduate from the University of Pennsylvania Medical School, and another became the Dean of Education at Howard University. She would follow the lineage, becoming the first black American to earn a Ph.D. in Economics and the first black American woman to earn a law degree from the University of Pennsylvania, among other notable academic achievements.

But while she would achieve many firsts in education, Sadie's lasting legacy stemmed from her impactful work as a lawyer and economist, where she fought for equal rights while taking an ardent, vocal stance on the importance of black Americans' achievements and contributions to the nation's progress. This latter effort came at a particularly important time in U.S. history, as the eugenics movement, which aimed in part to show the inferiority of black Americans, had gained popularity.

Though she wouldn't achieve the same fame, some described Sadie as one of the most important civil rights leaders in modern history, mentioning her amongst people such as Frederick Douglass, Martin Luther King Jr., and Sojourner Truth.

LAC has few fragile countries but many POCKETS of Fragility, Conflict and Criminal Violence.

These are territories where criminal organizations dispute state governance through the provision of public services and/or regulation of social life (i.e., criminal governance).
