International Women's Day 2025

International Women’s DayToday is International Women’s Day with the theme: “For ALL Women and Girls: Rights. Equality. Empowerment.”Recognition of this day began in 1911 with a focus on women's equality, women's achievement, and to raise awareness about discrimination.Over 100 years later, we are still fighting for the same basic recognition and dignity.This year’s theme is on point: liberation for ALL women and girls.Watching the political events of the last two months, we can see how women are pitted against each other.Wealthy women against women in povery.White women against women of Color.CIS women against trans women.Women who are American citizens against immigrant women.The only way we can ever get to the equality envisioned over a hundred years ago is together. We are all on the losing side of the patriarchy that has systemically kept women underpaid and unsafe.There are a number of ways to engage to create a more just world. For more on that, go to: https://www.internationalwomensday.com/But let us start our action with seeing how we are united instead of letting ourselves be divided. What impacts any of us impacts all of us. The administration that is using “protecting women” as an excuse to take away my rights are also being used to segregate, discriminate, and marginalize all women.We are all women. We are all being silenced. We are all marginalized. Let us stand as one so that ALL Women and Girls can have full Rights. Equality. and Empowerment.
