March is the celebration of Women's History Month, where we celebrate and join in the commemorating of all that women have accomplished over the years and how far they've come to show that the past, present, and future is female. 2018 marked the 30th anniversary of law marking Women's History Month an annual celebration in March, and we are going to continue celebrating even after this month as we should celebrate women every day.

March 8t marks International Women's Day where everyone worldwide celebrates the power of the female A school district in California wanted to honor women and their strong character by participating in Women's History Week. There were essay contests, presentations and even a parade in Santa Rosa, California. But people wanted Women's History Week to be an event we should be celebrating annually. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter declared the week of March 8th, 1980 as National Women's History Week. It quickly spread across the country. Schools were adding it into their curriculum, people were recognizing this week more than it grew into a monthlong event. 1995 marked the starting of each president establishing that March would be Women's History Month.

Each year, the National Women's History Alliance establishes a theme for their month. This year's theme is "Visionary Women: Champions of Peace & Nonviolence" where they will honor "women who have led efforts to end war, violence, and injustice and pioneered the use of nonviolence to change society." But, in my opinion, I believe that women's history could be honored every month of the year because our ancestors fought pretty damn hard to receive the rights that you and I were given at birth.

Throughout history, women have been fighting to be looked at as a stronger figure. Always put down by the men, forced to stay inside and do the 'household duties' while the men went to war and the men worked outside, but why not women?

In my opinion, there are some pretty badass women who have played tremendous roles in moving for women's rights. Susan B. Anthony was a key player in the suffrage movement, Harriet Tubman helped slaves escape through the Underground Railroad, I think women have proven that they are stronger than ever as they've battled for the right to vote, fighting to close the wage gap, and even receive more educational rights.

Marie Curie (1867-1934) changed the medical world by finding the science of radioactivity, which then launched effective cures for cancer. She was also the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, first female professor at the University of Paris, and the first person, yes first person (men and women) to win a second Nobel Peace Prize.

Rosa Parks (1913-2005) challenged the ongoing battle of racial segregation happening in the south when she refused to give up her seat on a bus when a white person was demanding her to move to the back of the bus. It went something along the lines of "No."

Diana, Princess of Wales (1961-1997) was taken from us way too soon due to a fatal car accident in 1997. But Diana was the first wife to the heir apparent to the British Throne, Charles, Prince of Wales. It was probably one of the most watched events on tv during that time with over 700 million people tuning in. Along with being a princess, Diana loved working internationally to help sick children, preaching the banning of landmines, and even raised awareness for people who were struck with cancer, HIV/AIDS and mental illness which is some things people really didn't talk about.

Amelia Earhart (1897-1937) was the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic ocean and broke the women's altitude record when she rose up to 14,000 feet. In 1937, she was going to be the first person to fly from the Red Sea to India but was reported missing on the 2nd of July. Her disappearance to this day is still one of history's biggest unsolved mysteries.

The list goes on and on of all these amazing women who either risked their lives or simply spoke up for what they believed in and challenged the authority to prove that women were stronger than what people perceived them to be. I feel that we should celebrate the history, the bravery and be proud of the women who fought for us.

Power to the Females.
