International Women's Day, History and today in Israel

Celebrate International Women's Day, with Nitza Lowenstein. Find out how it all started and also about women in Israel. The following paragraphs are taken from the AJN 8.3.2019: "On International Women’s Day we globally celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women... We are all working women. We are stay at home mums. We are lawyers, doctors and teachers, artists, authors and actors. We are councilors and cooks, lawyers and librarians. We are graphic designers and fashion designers. We are students, scholars and managers, members of parliament and the media. We are contributors to every aspect of life, public and private. We are resilient. We are survivors of the Holocaust, survivors of ill health, survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. Mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, friends an girlfriends. Nurturers and life givers, who try to eat well, cook well and make that gym class. We wear many hats, do many things and strive for balance. They are an immeasurable number of remarkable women in our community and I am sure that you are one of them".
