Feminist activists are not deterred by the daunting statistics so much as they're fueled by them.
International Women's Day 2023: A Celebration of Women's Achievements and A Call for Gender Equality
International Women's Day (IWD) is celebrated every year on March 8th to commemorate women's social, economic, cultural, and political achievements and advocate for gender equality. IWD 2023 comes at a crucial moment in history. The world is still grappling with the COVID-19 pandemic, which has disproportionately affected women and highlighted the systemic inequalities and injustices women face in all aspects of their lives. IWD 2023 provides an opportunity to reflect on the progress toward women's empowerment and call for more action to promote gender equality.

March is Women's History Month
March is one of my favorite months of the year. Blame it on my Irish roots. It typically signifies a turning point to spring. I love the color green. And like Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day is just another way for us to infuse a little joy into our lives. But the best part of all? It’s Women’s History Month.

A Woman is a Woman…
Being a woman is not all about dresses, dolls, and hair bows. There are so many different classifications of women in this day and age; it is no longer about femininity whatsoever. Hell, it is no longer about gender identification either. Just because a woman was ‘assigned female’ at birth does not mean that is the body she will be growing into. It is a tangled web we all weave.

Recreational Feminism
Feminist discourse is increasingly easy to get involved in. Due to the rise of social media and the internet, anyone can have their say from anywhere. I could be taken as an example of this: sitting in my bedroom, typing away about my opinions on everything. Myself, along with many other teenagers, have found feminist discourse to be interwoven with every type of media- most prominently on TikTok. I know I have a tendency to relate many cultural phenomena back to this app, but (especially for teenagers) the impact it has had on many aspects of life cannot be underestimated.

Do not forget the women who rebelled
Iran has a long and painful history of protests. Election fraud, economic struggles, and civil liberties have all sparked revolts over the years. However, the most recent movement represents something unprecedented. A revolution led by women, supported by men, and deeply rooted in a demand for fundamental human rights.

The Remote Working Blueprint
Whilst some people swear they remote worked before it was cool, this is commonly new to a large portion of the world. Therefore, humanity are currently evolving this concept and creating the blueprint for this. With that in mind, we should remain conscious that if we aren’t careful about how this gets brought into the world, we will lose the opportunity to evolve working culture in the way it needs to be done. Business still needs to thrive but humans need to be, well, human!

Robin's Art
Introduction I am not sure how I first became Facebook friends with Robin Grotjan, maybe it was through Mafia Wars, an addictive Facebook game that I managed to forget about. She had a joint acvount with her husband Ron who she lost to cancer but I was good friends with both of them, and am still in close contact with Robin.
