"Women's History Month" is an annual declared month that highlights the contribution of women to events in history and contemporary society. It is celebrated during March in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia, corresponding with "International Women's Day" on the 8th of March, and during October in Canada, corresponding with the celebration of "Persons Day" on the  18th of October.

"Women’s History Month" began as a local celebration in Santa Rosa, California. The Education Task Force of the Sonoma Country (California) Commission on the Status of Women planned and executed a “Women’s History Week” celebration in 1978. The organizers selected the week of the 8th of March to correspond with "International Women’s Day". The movement spread across the country as other communities initiated their own "Women’s History Week" celebrations the following year. In 1980, a consortium of women’s groups and historians successfully lobbied for national recognition. Subsequent Presidents continued to proclaim a "National Women’s History Week" in March until 1987 when Congress passed Public Law 100-9, designating March as “Women’s History Month.”

[Keep arms loose at your side, march in place to the beat for the first eight verses]
Patri-archy is our judge
That imprisons us at birth
And our punishment
Is the violence you DON'T see.

[March in place, but without lifting feet from the ground; move forearms up and down in sync with]
And it's not my fault, not where I was, not how I dressed.
And it's not my fault, not where I was, not how I dressed.

And the rapist IS you
[Extend LEFT arm straight out in front of you, pointing]
Its the cops,

It's The judges,

It's The president.
[Cross forearms above the head forming an X]
This oppressive state is a macho rapist.

Goal 5 agenda 2030 : Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls

# data[].attributes.body
Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.

There has been progress over the last decades: more girls are going to school, fewer girls are forced into early marriage, more women are serving in Parliament and positions of leadership, and laws are being reformed to advance gender equality.

Despite these gains, many challenges remain: women continue to be underrepresented at all levels of political leadership, and one in five women and girls between the ages of 15 and 49 report experiencing physical or sexual violence by an intimate partner within a 12-month period.

Women’s empowerment can be defined the promotion of women’s sense of self-worth, their ability to determine their own choices, and their right to influence social change for themselves and others. This movement tends to be split into three waves, the first beginning in the 19th and early 20th century where suffrage was a key feature. The second wave of the 1960s included the sexual revolution and the role of women in society. Third wave feminism is often seen as beginning in the 1990s. Women’s empowerment and promoting women’s rights have emerged as a part of a major global movement and is continuing to break new ground in recent years. But despite a great deal of progress, women and girls continue to face discrimination and violence in every part of the world.
