1 year 1 month ago
Welcome to this weekend in history, March 8th and 9th, dates marked by remarkable events that have shaped our world. The most noteworthy event on March 8th is the celebration of International Women's Day, a global day recognizing the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women.
