In 1978, a group of women educators and activists in Sonoma County, California, frustrated by the erasure of women’s narratives in educational materials, kick-started what would become Women’s History Month.
Now, 26 years later, we have fewer rights than our foremothers, and are under imminent threat of losing more. We honor them and the other people who shaped our movement, like Shirley Chisholm, Rosa Parks, and Norma McCorvey (aka “Jane Roe”), by continuing the fight every day. Here’s how:
1) March 13: Launch of Bans Off Our Bodies Weekly Actions, weekly protests everywhere through the elections. Sign up to get trained up and host an action in your community.
3) March 26: SCOTUS Mifepristone Oral Arguments. Put your body on the line in Washington, DC.
Winning back our rights will take daily, relentless pursuit of our goals. We build a movement so that we have the strength and grit to stay in the fight. We commit to being here with you all as long as it takes to win for us all.
Let’s make history,
Women’s March
