Celebrating women’s history is great, but what about our future?
|
During this month we celebrate the progress that has been made in this nation for women. Progress has been made for women in terms of education, healthcare and having a voice in our democracy. However, there is so much more that needs to be done. Women in the United States still do not feel valued nor equal to men. Most professions, boardrooms and leadership positions are male dominated.
|
There are still gaps in this country that need to be filled with more women.

Becoming a woman is a long trip down a road that never ends. We’re faced with road blocks in every step of the journey while we find our identity.
|
As women we have to deal with unjust circumstances that were built in this nation that will take a lifetime and more to make just again.
|
Without the cooperation and relationships made possible by women there would be no progress. Political activists and role models that listened to and banned together with other women are the reason we have the advantages we have.
|
This month it’s important to appreciate and understand the relationships between women that get us through the unpredictable waves of being a woman.
