origin
It is well known that ancient women had no status in China. In fact, foreign countries are the same. Working women have not received due respect and equal treatment at all. In the 20th century, there were many demonstrations and women's collective strikes. This series of socialist feminist movements in Europe and America contributed to the birth of "March 8" International Women's Day.
International Women's Day is a festival celebrated by many countries in the world. On this day, women's achievements are affirmed, regardless of their nationality, nationality, language, culture, economic situation and political stance. Since the beginning of International Women's Day, it has opened a new world for women in developed and developing countries. The achievements of working women have been duly affirmed, women's rights and interests have been properly guaranteed, and most women in the world have a say in their efforts.
Since 1975 International Women's Day, the United Nations has held activities to celebrate International Women's Day on March 8 every year, which has become the anniversary of the United Nations. Some people wear purple ribbons to celebrate this day. ?
