As women, we carry on the progressive agendas of all those that went before us from education, to empowerment in every aspect of our lives. We are also creating the launch pad for the women that are to follow. Today, some countries honor and promote women’s rights and have made progress to the point that most major issues, surrounding women’s rights are a normal part of the social fabric. While in other countries women are still plagued with the same levels of oppression that existed for several hundred years. With the onset of global connectivity women have an opportunity to make change and global improvements like never before. We can show up and make a difference in the lives of other women halfway around the world by simply sharing and networking our solutions together.
This is our time This week here in the United States , Supreme Court Justice Scalia died. His untimely departure further polarized many of the issue still sitting in the supreme court , such as Immigration, abortion, birth control, Unions, redistricting, affirmative action and the fate of the earth (climate change).. As we move forward we are reminded of how necessary it is to guard and protect our hard won rights seeing at any time it could be at risk off being taken away. We’ll know we’ve made permanent progress when the entire concept of women’s rights are no longer an issue but an everyday occurrence. I hope you enjoy this issue.
