π π In this special episode of #LifeisaSacredJourney, our fantastic host, Micheal Pope, will be joined by the superb Carolyn A. Brent to celebrate the contributions of women to events in history and contemporary society. Historical Background: In 1987, after being petitioned by the National Women's History Project, Congress passed Pub. L. 100-9, which designated the month of March 1987 as Women's History Month. Between 1988-1994, Congress passed additional resolutions requesting and authorizing the President to proclaim March of each year as Women's History Month. Since 1988, U.S. presidents have issued annual proclamations designating the month of March as Women's History Month on occasion.
State departments of education also began to encourage celebrations of Women's History Month to promote equality among the sexes in the classroom. Within a few years, thousands of schools and communities began to celebrate Women's History Month. They planned engaging and stimulating programs about women's roles in history and society, with support and encouragement from governors, city councils, school boards, and the U.S. Congress. Today, some of the groups promoting this interest are state historical societies, women's organizations, and groups such as the USA's Girl Scouts.
