HOW WOMEN BECOME EMPOWERED!
|
|
“Feminism isn’t about making women strong. Women are already strong.
It’s about changing the way the world perceives that strength.”
- G.D. Anderson
|
|
As tens of thousands of civilians flee Ukraine, many women are staying to fight for their freedom, alongside the men who have been ordered to stay and fight.
As I write this, we are in day five of Russia's siege of Kyiv, Ukraine.
The city still has not fallen. I pray for a miracle.
Women now make up 15% of the armed forces in Ukraine, and as war rages on in Ukraine, many women across the nation, from politicians to beauty queens, have taken up arms to defend their nation against Russian invasion. Ukraine's women are empowered.

TOMBOYS, SOCCER PAY VICTORY & WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH
|
By Anne Doyle, SWT Guest
What do you think of when you hear the word Tomboy?
Does it bring back memories of roughhousing with your brothers, tinkering in the garage with your motorbike and preferring blue jeans to princess dresses?
Or do you think of sports and how your confidence and character were shaped by playing on a team and having a coach who challenged you to pick yourself right up after setbacks and get back in the game?

HELP EMPOWER ABUSE VICTIMS THIS MONTH
|
By Bobette Schrandt, SWT Guest
The best way to honor March as National Women’s History Month is to honor the heroines of change, acknowledge the barriers and threats that continue, and support organizations that champion for women all year long.
Among those organizations are those that deal with violence against women.
Did you know that one in three women around the world experience interpersonal violence, most often at the hands of someone they know and trust?
