International Women's Day (IWD), also known as "International Women's Day", "38 Women's Day" and "38 Women's Day", is a festival set up on March 8 every year to celebrate women's important contributions and great achievements in economic, political and social fields. The main representatives are Clara Caitkin, He Xiangning, Jin Xueshu, etc.
In different regions, the focus of celebration is different, from the general celebration of respect, appreciation and love for women to the celebration of women's achievements in the economic, political and social fields. Since this festival was a political event initiated by socialist feminists at the beginning, it is integrated with the culture of many countries, mainly in socialist countries.
International Women's Day is celebrated in many countries around the world. On this day, women's achievements were recognized, regardless of their nationality, nationality, language, culture, economic status and political position. Since its inception, International Women's Day has opened a Xintiandi for women in developed and developing countries. The growing international women's movement has been strengthened through the four United Nations global conferences on women's issues. The commemoration of International Women's Day has become a rallying point for women's rights and women's participation in political and economic affairs.
The slogan of the strike of textile women workers in Lawrence, Kansas, USA, is "We also want bread and roses". This shows that they not only need food and clothing, but also want to live a decent life. Influenced by it, the poet James Oppenheim wrote the song "Bread and Rose":
When we move forward, move forward in a good time
In thousands of dark kitchens and gray factories
We felt the warm sunshine suddenly shining in
In order for the people to hear our songs
Bread and roses, bread and roses
As we move forward, we bring better sunshine
The awakening of women means the rise of an ethnic group
When others rest
No more hard work and temporary workers
We should share the glory of life
Bread with roses Bread with roses
Greenpy wish all women Happy Women's Day!
