Day 26: International Women's Day

International Women's Day

Journal #3:

  • What are women protesting for (want) on International Women's Day?  Don't just say "equality"...in what areas?
  • In Canada, what would it take in order for women to reach equality in various aspects of society?
  • Do you think this will be achieved in your lifetime?  Yes? How?  or No?  What are the roadblocks?
