Considering the important role American women with Czechoslovak roots played, special subsections have been devoted to Czech and Slovak American women and their descendants. Covered are not only the immigrants and their descendants in the United States, but also those colonists who migrated to Canada and Latin America. Their achievements
in and the impact on the New World have been remarkable, be they by Hall of Famers or other worth-of-notice notables in just about every field of human endeavor. An important role among them, played social movement activists, some of whose ideas won the respect and ultimately acceptance by the general population.

This accounts for the remarkable success and achievements of these settlers in the New World, transcending through their descendants.
