Happy International Working Women’s Day!

Remember: this was a day originally intended to coordinate working-class women into political action, so go out and make the change you want to see.

We’re still a bit underwater with other work here at RP, so here’s some other great ways to celebrate today:

• @missedinhistory has been tearing it up lately, with episodes on the Night Witches, Hildegard von Bingen, Women in Medicine, and Women in STEM.
  
• If you’re into comics, @kellysue has been on a mission to trumpet female creators and make them #visiblewomen. 
  
• I regularly update the RP website with tons of amazing modern-day women who have been alive too recently for the full illustrated treatment – lose a couple hours with the Modern Worthies!

Have fun smashing the patriarchy, y’all! God willing, back next Wednesday with a new entry!
