Celebrating Women’s History Month with Congresswoman Nikema Williams


In a powerful celebration of Women’s History Month, our magazine proudly unveiled Congresswoman Nikema Williams as the cover star of its Volume 48 issue. The prestigious cover reveal event took place at the historic Hammonds House Museum in Atlanta, Georgia, drawing an influential audience of community leaders, policymakers, and industry professionals in recognition of Williams’ continued impact on public service and advocacy.


The Legacy of Congresswoman Nikema Williams

Congresswoman Nikema Williams has established herself as a trailblazer in Georgia politics and beyond. Currently representing Georgia’s 5th Congressional District—a seat previously held by the late civil rights icon Congressman John Lewis—Williams has remained steadfast in championing the values of justice, equity, and progress.

Her legislative priorities focus on expanding voting rights, advocating for marginalized communities, and ensuring economic opportunity for all. Prior to her election to Congress, Williams served as a Georgia State Senator and Chair of the Democratic Party of Georgia, where she played a pivotal role in shaping policy and mobilizing voter engagement. Her leadership continues to inspire, making her a fitting choice to be honored on the cover of our latest issue.


A Night of Celebration and Reflection

Set against the artistic ambiance of the Hammonds House Museum, the evening served as both a celebration of Congresswoman Williams and a broader recognition of women who are redefining leadership in politics, business, and community engagement.

Following the example of Atlanta’s Mayor Andre Dickens of fostering a broader sense of community, art and culture attendees gathered to acknowledge her achievements, discussing the progress of women in leadership, and reflecting on the continued work needed to advance gender equity and representation.

The event culminated with a fireside-chat and the unveiling of the Volume 48 ITCM cover, which features Congresswoman Williams and her family in a striking and symbolic portrayal of resilience and progress. The energy in the room was undeniable, as many notable guests, magazine staff, & officials in politics came out to show support, engaged in insightful discussions and shared in the collective vision for a future where women’s voices are amplified at every level of decision-making. We were graciously joined by a plethora of illustrious public figures including Atlanta City Councilmember Andrea Boone (District 10), Atlanta City Councilmember Matt Westmoreland (At-Large Post Seat 1), East Point Councilmember Joshua Butler (IV, Ward D At-Large), Georgia State Senator Jason Esteves (District 6), Rev. Dr. Brian Tillman (Senior Pastor, Central United Methodist Church) and Former State Representative William Boddie!
