“We’ve Come a Long Way, Ladies”



So declared First Lady Michelle Obama this evening from the White House as she commemorated the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day. She's right, but I couldn't help but spend most of today, of all days, thinking about all the women in the world who still need equality and justice in their lives. This article is one I read recently which really had a profound impact on me, and this is yet another report from Al Jazeera documenting the disturbing wave of femicides occurring in Mexico.
