The Labor Origins of, Women's History Month:, Explained.
Though women should be celebrated
every day, March has been designated
National Women’s History Month.
Here's how March came to be
known as Women’s History Month.
Women’s History Month was birthed after
garment workers in New York City held a
massive protest on March 8, 1857.
The strike was repeated on the same date in
1908 and throughout the year, which led to March 8
being named International Women’s Day.
In 1978, activist Molly Murphy
MacGregor instituted a local
“women's history week”
in Sonoma, California.
It was recognized nationally
on a year-to-year basis in 1980 by
President Jimmy Carter.
By 1986, 14 states recognized March as Women’s
History Month, as a result of the hard work of
The National Women's History Project.
A year later, in 1987, the entire nation began celebrating National Women's Day in March
