The Rise of International Women’s Day
International Women’s Day began in 1909 in the United States, initiated by the Socialist Party of America. It gained global momentum after a 1910 proposal by Clara Zetkin in Germany and was first celebrated internationally in 1911, honoring women’s rights, equality, and empowerment across the world.
