International Women’s Day

Posted by Michelle Moquin on March 8th, 2014

Well….since it is a day celebrated all over the world, “International Women’s Day“ was first observed yesterday. But living in the U.S., I am posting about it today, a day where I usually post about Wonderful Women Of The World. How perfect.

Happy International Women’s Day to all women around the world! If you started celebrating yesterday, I HOPE your day today is even better than yesterday! I HOPE that you were loved and revered and respected and that all of those good things that you experienced will continue way past today.

CNN had a special last night celebrating ”International Women’s Day.” I loved the question they asked but I enjoyed reading the answers even more.

Here’s what a few women had to say.

International Women’s Day 2014: What kind of world do YOU want to build?

 

Australian iReporter Jessica Arvela says: “Throughout my undergraduate and postgraduate study, I have focused on gaining an understanding of the complex social, political, and even environmental forces behind human trafficking; in particular women and children. “

Kathy Korman Frey is the founder of the Hot Momma’s Project, an online library cataloguing stories of female success in business. She tells iReport that it is essential for women to make a concerted effort to come together in order to succeed.

In Nairobi, Kenya, writer and publicist Corrie Mwende wants to build a world where female African leaders are the norm, not the exception. “My hope is that this notion changes and that soon women leaders will be recognized…and respected. A world of equality in all spheres,” says Mwende.  

Indian iReporter Meera Vijayannwants all of us to remember that we have the power to create a safe environment. “In streets and alleyways across Bangalore, communities are often vulnerable to crimes as they lack the power to report these crimes to the authorities,” she says.

Shireen Mitchell has been programming since she was just 10 years old. But even today, in a world where technology continues to infiltrate every facet of our lives, she says people find that hard to believe. For her, perceptions need to change.

   This is almost unbelievable:

   In Nate Silver’s “tipping point” state for Senate control, North Carolina, the Kochs have now aired a record-high FIVE THOUSAND attack ads. The Kochs have spent almost $9 million to defeat Democrat Kay Hagan — more than all Democratic groups have spent in every Senate battleground combined — and it has erased Hagan’s 15 point lead.

   These attacks are likely to continue up until the election — that’s why our new offensive to counter the Kochs is kicking off TOMORROW NIGHT. We don’t need to match the Kochs dollar-for-dollar; instead, we’ll topple their attack machine with a $60 million, 4000-staff voter turnout campaign that’s smarter, better, and more cost-effective.

   If we can fund Month One of our Grassroots Victory Project by the FEC deadline in 24 hours, we’ll be able to launch operations in North Carolina and nine other states starting NEXT WEEK.
