International Women's Day
Tim asked why today is International Women's Day. We told him it was because the other 364 days this year are for men.
Couldn't find much news coverage on the web in the US, except for a press release from CARE's president, who is a guy.
Instead of the news, I read part of Emma Goldman's Tragedy of Woman's Emancipation. Emma Goldman was an idealist to say the least, and her idealism comes across in that essay. She lost her citizenship and spent time in jail, including time for protesting the draft for WW I.
