March is Women’s History Month, which is a great time to talk about some badass women who have made a difference in the world. There won’t ever be enough time in the world to mention everyone, but here are some of my favorites 🙂
The OG’s who stood up (or sat down) for what’s right regardless of what might happen: Susan B Anthony worked for women’s rights to vote, Rosie the Riveter encouraged women to join the workforce during WWII and stay there even after the men returned home, Malala Yousafzai worked for education rights for women even after getting shot by the Taliban for doing so, and Claudette Colvin + Rosa Parks who both refused to get up for white passengers and helped pave the way to end segregationQueen Elizabeth – the world’s longest serving monarch hitting her 70th year in 2022. She took the crown at just 25 years old and dedicated her life to her country. Serena Williams – best tennis player in the world, and continues to showcase what a strong female athlete looks like even when the haters are talking. Still kicks ass after giving birth! Michelle Obama – Not only served as the first African-American First Lady, but showcases what it means to be a woman with goals who gets things done. She’s fought against childhood obesity with her Let’s Move initiative and helped work towards free lunches in public schools Ellen DeGeneres – Came out on National Television and is an activist for the LGBTQUIA community
Two of my favorite singers of all time – Miley Cyrus and Cardi B. Both not giving AF about what the media says about them and continuing to live their lives in the most badass way possible. Miley faced a lot of backlash coming from a Disney background, but has gone on to be noted as one of the best rockstars as well as founded The Happy Hippie Foundation to help Homeless and LGBTQ youth. Cardi B – a sex icon. Faced a lot of backlash for her song WAP (read my blog post about that here) but continues to hype up girls and all their feminine energy. Ruth Bader Ginsburg – changed the way the law sees gender and became the second female justice of the US Supreme Court. Worked to ensure women could not be discriminated against based on their sex. She was also a strong voice in favor of the separation of church and state. She literally became a lawyer because she felt like she could do a lawyer’s job better than them – which is a MOOD.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a firm believer that “women belong in places where decisions are made”. I hope and pray that her legacy continues on, and as someone who firmly agrees, I will be honoring Ruth’s legacy on March 8th – International Women’s Day with the shirt I made below. And since I know that a shirt doesn’t make a whole lot of difference, I will continueto speak up for what I believe in, and stand up for what’s right. Because history was never made with silent voices.
