Today is the 30th anniversary of International Women’s Day. It was originally created by the UN in 1977 as a way to recognize and celebrate the advances in women’s rights, and to determine what still needs to be done. Canada’s theme for this year’s International Women’s Day is Ending Violence Against Women: Action for Real Results.
Living in Canada, I have rarely felt that my rights are less then those given to a man. There are many countries in the world, though, where women have significantly less right then men. There is a long way to go before all people are treated equal. Examining these issues on International Women’s Day is a good start, but we must keep these issues in mind all the time.
I love the blog that you have. I was wondering if you would link my blog to yours and in return I would do the same for your blog. If you want to, my site name is American Legends and the URL is:
http://www.americanlegends.info
If you want to do this just go to my blog and in one of the comments just write your blog name and the URL and I will add it to my site.
Thanks,
David
Happy IWD to you!
