Today, we women all around the World unite to celebrate the International Women's Day by supporting the A Day Without A Woman strike and march. Above are the three things we women can do to support the cause for Women and Human rights. This is the continuation of the International Women's March that started in Washington D.C. last 21 January right after the Presidential Inauguration of the most crazy and irrational President of the USA. On that day, we saw massive marches across the World against the racism, sexism, misogyny, hate and division of this President. We must never be complacent, never give up and continue to be united to fight for inclusion, love, peace and diversity. Remember, that we women, have the power, the political, economic and social power to bring about changes in our World. We especially have the economic power to choose what to purchase. We can change the World for the better filled with love, diversity, equality and human rights for all.
I strike for the following reasons: 1). For my niece and her young generation that they may continue to enjoy the Women and Human rights that we currently enjoy, which were fought for by the women before us. 2) For the woman's right to choose and have easy access to superior health care. This is not about abortion. I do not support abortion but I respect the woman's right to choose without any judgement. We can be pro-life but also be pro-Women's rights and 3). for love, inclusion, diversity, equality and peace in the World.
Thank you very much to my American friend, Connie Snow, who writes the blog Snow In The Air for knitting my pink pussy hat which is the symbol of the Women's March. From Canada, we are in solidarity with our fellow American women and around the World supporting this cause.
Bravo to Vogue Magazine's March issue for celebrating Women's power.
Support Women around the World in your little way, by purchasing the Shea Butter Solidarity Lip Balm from L'Occitane for $6 CAN. All profits will go 100% to the UN Women fund.
Without love, deeds, even the most brilliant, count as nothing.
