International Women’s Day – 8 March
O International Women’s Day is celebrated around the world on March 8 and it is obvious that there is a good reason for that. Certainly you celebrate or congratulate the women nearby that day, but have you ever stopped to ask yourself why March 8 was chosen?
Although it is not considered a national holiday here in Brazil, it is a day that is always remembered, this because of a historical fact that occurred on the same date.
In fact, International Women’s Day is not just a moment reserved for congratulations, it is a celebration of important achievements, for example:
- Right to vote: For a long time women from all over the world did not have the right to vote or to participate in electoral disputes;
- Labor rights: Women did not always have the right to rise economically for their efforts, that is, they were not always able to work and when they worked they were exploited;
The struggle for these rights began at the very end of the 19th century in a more incisive way in the United States and Europe. Among the main points discussed, gender bias and the many hours of work hours – 15 hours, which bordered on slavery were the main ones.
International Women’s Day was celebrated for the first time in the United States in 1908. When more than 1,500 held a protest demanding equal economic and political rights.
However, the date was made official a year later, on February 28, 1909 by the Socialist Party in the United States.
