May French Sheldon
May French Sheldon was a wealthy American feminist and explorer known for her controversial travels in Africa during the late 19th century. In 1891, she journeyed through Kenya and Tanzania, claiming to do so 'alone and unescorted,' though she was accompanied by a large group of African workers. Her writings upon returning to the United States expressed a patronizing view of the local populations, showcasing her belief in white supremacy and colonialism, which complicates her legacy as a feminist figure.
