Women's History Month: Break The Bias |
Hello
We celebrated Black History Month last month. However, as I indicated, Black History is year-round, 24/7. Therefore, let's celebrate our rich history and diversity EVERY DAY and in EVERY WAY--in word and in deed.
March is also a commemorative month for women history makers who are often overlooked. Therefore, we're now proudly celebrating Women's History Month!
The 2022 theme for Women's History Month is: "BREAK The BIAS"--with a hands-crossed symbol that signifies solidarity and unity.
The month is dedicated to honoring women and their contributions and celebrating the many important roles women have played throughout history--It's a time to recognize the female leaders, workers, entrepreneurs, frontline workers, mothers, grandmothers, and again--history makers--who have made our world a better place.
Take a look at the pieces highlighted below and let this powerful cadre of women spur you forward to good works, good trouble, and higher heights!
Let's DRIVE ourselves to be and do all that God intended us to be and do.
Love & Blessings Always,
Hattie
