Women’s Day
continues to serve as a forum to bring attention to the larger discourse of inclusivity, gender parity, and women’s rights talk.
February 28, 1909, was held as Women’s Day by the Socialist Party of America in New York. It was the day when women workers advocated for labour rights and civil and political rights. In Germany, Clara Zetkin, a women’s rights activist, put forward the idea of Women’s Day in the second international conference of working women held in Denmark. Universal female suffrage, labour movements, and the advocacy of women’s political rights were the events that spurred the observance of International Women's Day.
