In trying to remain active here in IG, I wanted to use my position at Barnes and Noble to highlight historical women for the upcoming Women’s History Month. The celebration of Women’s History Month started in 1987 during the month of March as per the United States Congress who passed passed Pub. L. 100-9 which designated the month of March 1987 as “Women’s History Month.” Prior to that in 1981, the celebration was a week long as punctuated by President Ronald Reagan:“American women of every race, creed and ethnic background helped found and build our Nation in countless recorded and unrecorded ways … As leaders in public affairs, American women not only worked to secure their own rights of suffrage and equal opportunity but also were principal advocates in the abolitionist, temperance, mental health reform, industrial labor and social reform movements, as well as the modern civil rights movement.”What I want to do is explore the shelves of the bookstore that I work in for books about women, written by women. I look forward to the challenge of finding those books and highlighting both the subject and the author. Keep you peeled for those ‍♀️ .#WomensHistoryMonth #BooksofWomenByWomen #HERStory #BooksAtMyJob #Books #Libros #Livres #History #Historia #Histoire #Geschichte #HistorySisco #HistorySiscoAtTheBookstore https://www.instagram.com/p/CLrpLKvhTka/?igshid=1jic96zu6q4l4 -- source link
