The story behind International Women's Day
International Women's Day grew out of the labor and suffrage movements of the early 1900s, in the United States and Europe. Its date was sealed in 1917, when women textile workers in Petrograd struck for 'bread and peace' on March 8 and helped set off the Russian Revolution. The United Nations began marking the day in 1975.
It is an official day off in about twenty countries in our data, from Angola and Burkina Faso to Georgia and Ukraine's neighbors, and in many others women receive flowers at work and at home. Each year the UN gives the day a theme on women's rights and equality.
