Women’s History Month began in 1987 after the National Women’s History Project, opens a new window petitioned to expand Women’s History Week, which corresponded with International Women’s Day. This year’s theme is Women Providing Healing, Promoting Hope, a “tribute to the ceaseless work of caregivers and frontline workers during this ongoing pandemic and also a recognition of the thousands of ways that women of all cultures have provided both healing and hope throughout history.”
This Women’s History Month, celebrate the women in your lives by educating yourself on women’s issues and history, and supporting women creators! We’ve got some non-fiction and fiction reads we recommend.
