By Shewanda Riley “Scars are the mark of a warrior” was one of the most memorable lines from the box office hit The Woman King starring Viola Davis. This line comes after one of the physically and emotionally grueling training sessions where the agojie female trainees are forced to endure fighting through a difficult thorny obstacle course. After showing they can survive the brutal training, the young women receive medical care and encouragement from the more experienced warriors. By this point in the movie, I had eaten most of my popcorn and had settled in to enjoying the action-packed movie.
