Ridgewood NJ, International Women’s Day (IWD) is celebrated on March 8 every year. It is a focal point in the movement for women’s rights. We know it was yesterday but some of the staff took longer to get ready. After the Socialist Party of America organized a Women’s Day on February 28, 1909, in New York, the 1910 International Socialist Woman’s Conference suggested a Women’s Day be held annually.
In October 2015, Glamour magazine named Caitlyn Jenner one of its 25 Glamour Women of the Year . Glamour’s Women of the Year Awards, are an event which honors women of various backgrounds.
