NAKANO TAKEKO Vanguard of the Viragoes

    • History

This week’s virago preferred to fight with her naginata and her band of warriors, the all-woman powerhouse combat unit called The Jōshitai (娘子隊, Girls' Army). Nakano was not only a warrior and a community organizer, she was also the last Samurai of Japan.

Experience the courageous battles of The Jōshitai and then meet a part of my legacy and the “OG” virago of my life- my mother & muse, Ms. Tia Powell Harris.


*TRIGGER WARNING*
This episode contains sounds of war. You may hear rapid gunfire, weeping, explosions, intense gore, general violence, screaming, babies crying, blood gushing, and/ or sirens.
