Hello again!
I know ya'll don't wanna be reading a history blog but I promise it's just Feb/March that I will do this.
March is women's history month and I choose to acknowledge:
SHIRLEY CHISHOLM!
I remember reading about her as I was a little girl and she really has some interesting facts. so read up:
1. she's British Guiana and Barbados [grammatical check!] but married a Jamaican!
2. participated in local politics and started the Unity Democratic Club
3. held a seat in the legislative office, where she prepared bills and fought for them
4. became the first African-American woman to hold office in Congress!
5. 1972 she ran for presidency for the Democratic party
I really love women's month because ever since 2nd semester my freshman year I have developed a love for women's appreciation. In a way, I guess you can say I'm a feminist. I believe women should be treated equal to men, which in some cases they're not!
anyway, I'm not going into details about this!
PEACE.LOVE.HAPPINESS
