Today is International Women's Day, a day that celebrates womanhood and is a focal point in the movement for women's rights.

After the Socialist Party of America organized a Women's Day on February 28, 1909, in New York, the 1910 International Socialist Woman's Conference suggested a Women's Day be held annually. After women gained suffrage in Soviet Russia in 1917, March 8 became a national holiday there. The day was then predominantly celebrated by the socialist movement and communist countries until it was adopted in 1975 by the United Nations.

So here I celebrate 3 utterly brilliant women. These little ones now have children of their own and more remarkable women are following. Excellent!
