The origin of March 8 women's day

March 8 Women's Day, also known as International Women's Day, is a festival for women all over the world to strive for peace, equality and development. This festival is held on March 8 every year. Over the past century, women in various countries have made unremitting efforts and struggles to win this right.

On March 8th, 1857, female garment and textile workers in new york, USA held a protest against inhuman working environment, 12-hour working system and low wages. The marchers were surrounded by police and dispersed. Two years later, in March, these women formed their first trade union.

On March 8th, 1908, 1500 women marched in new york, demanding shorter working hours, higher pay, voting rights and prohibition of child labor. Their slogan is "bread and roses". Bread symbolizes economic security, while roses symbolize a better quality of life. In May, the American Socialist Party decided to take the last Sunday in February as the National Women's Day.

19 10, German sociologist Tsetkin suggested that one day should be designated as "International Women's Day" to commemorate the strike of American garment workers. The International Conference of Women Sociologists held in Copenhagen accepted this proposal, but no specific date was set.

19 17, Russian women called for a strike on February 23, demanding "bread and peace" to protest against the harsh working environment and food shortage. Julian calendar used in Russia is the last Sunday of every month, and the Gregorian calendar widely used in Europe is March 8.

1924 on March 8th, the China * * * production party held its first commemorative meeting in Guangzhou.

From 65438 to 0949, the Central People's Government of China decided to designate March 8 as Women's Day, during which women throughout the country had a half-day holiday and held various ceremonies to commemorate and celebrate.

1977 65438+In February, the United Nations passed a resolution to designate a certain day every year as the United Nations Women's Rights and Peace Day, which was subject to the history and traditions of Member States. For the United Nations, International Women's Day is scheduled for March 8th, starting from 1975.

The origin of March 8th Festival.

1On March 8th, 903, women workers in Chicago, USA held a general strike and demonstration in order to oppose bourgeois oppression, exploitation and discrimination and strive for freedom and equality. This struggle has won the support and enthusiastic response of American working women. 19 10, advanced women from some countries held the second international socialist women's conference in Copenhagen, Denmark. At the suggestion of Tsetkin, a German socialist revolutionary who presided over the meeting, the General Assembly designated March 8 every year as International Women's Day to strengthen the unity of working women in the world and support women's struggle for freedom and equality. The United Nations celebrated International Women's Day from 1975. Since then, March 8 has become a great festival for working women all over the world to strive for peace, women's and children's rights and women's liberation.

The first commemoration of March 8th International Women's Day in China began at 1924. Of course, working women in China, under the leadership of China's * * * Production Party, held activities in Guangzhou to commemorate "March 8th" International Women's Day.

After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), the State Council, the central people's government, issued a national decree in February 1949, and designated March 8 as Women's Day.

March 8 women's day activities

Who can tell me how many great women there are on the earth with a drop of water in the Milky Way? Who can tell me that there are no female footprints and laughter on our 9.65 million square kilometers of land, on the snow-covered northwest plateau, on the endless green flat land, in the bustling city and on the stormy island? Who can tell me that the motherland is increasingly prosperous and all fronts are thriving, and there is no sweat and hard work shed by women here? You can remember Gorky's poem: "We should praise them-women, that is, mothers. The whole world is raised by their milk ... without mothers and poets, there would be no love. " I want to praise her-a woman, a great woman.

The best person in the world must be the one who makes the most of his life. A great man once said that a person's value lies not in what he gets, but in what he gives. This is not a high-profile process to tap one's own energy, but also a process to contribute to society. Open the annals of history, from Athena, the goddess of wisdom in ancient Greek mythology, to Huang Daopo in ancient China; From Mrs. Julie, who won the Nobel Prize twice, to Xu Gongqiao, the first female doctor in New China, from/kloc-elizabeth barret browning, a British poetess in the 9th century, to Li Qingzhao in the Southern Song Dynasty and Bing Xin today; From Clara Tsetkin, who is known as "the mother of the international women's movement and a warrior who cries out to the storm", to Yang Kaihui and Liu Hulan who shed blood for the birth of new China; From Gaffry mistral, the first famous Chilean poetess in Latin America who gained knowledge through self-study and won the Nobel Prize, to Zhang Haidi, a "contemporary Paul" who was ill but studied hard. There are countless women who struggle for women's liberation, and there is no end. Some of them are women revolutionaries who died heroically for the China revolution, some are leaders who promoted the women's movement in China, and some are China women who worked hard and silently in the rear. More importantly, they tried to help the Chinese nation get rid of the oppression of feudal residual theocracy, political power and clan rights and truly realize women's liberation. Facing them, I can't help eulogizing women, great women.

As we all know, March 8th International Women's Day is a festival to commemorate the struggle of working women all over the world for peace, democracy and women's liberation. 1909 On March 8th, women workers in Chicago, USA held a large-scale strike demonstration for freedom and equality, which was warmly responded by working women. 19 10 In August, at the Second International Socialist Women's Conference held in Copenhagen, the German revolutionary Tzetkin, who led the conference, suggested to the conference that March 8 every year be the World Women's Struggle Day, which won unanimous support. 1924, China women held the first mass "March 8th" commemorative meeting in Guangzhou. After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), the State Council, the Central People's Government, designated March 8 as Women's Day in February1949 65438+.

Another March 8th Festival reminds me of Qiu Jin, a famous modern democratic revolutionary in China. 1In July, 907, Xu Xilin, a member of the Guangfu Association, launched the Anqing Uprising. Qiu Jin responded to the Xu Xilin Uprising in Zhejiang. Unfortunately, the uprising failed and Qiu Jin was arrested. Just before Xuantingkou was killed in Shaoxing, she looked up at the sky majestically and said, "Autumn wind and autumn rain are terrible!" After a heroic sacrifice. This is a great feeling of worrying about the country and the people. She put her life and death aside and worried about the future of the country and the future before she died. It is because of Qiu Jin, a patriotic heroine, that many women in China have a new understanding of the significance of the revolution and inspired many China revolutionaries to resolutely embark on the road of democratic revolution in China.

Unfortunately, since ancient times, although women in China have made indelible contributions to society, due to the shackles imposed on women by feudal society, women's contributions are often either obliterated or replaced by men. Have you noticed that the corruption and incompetence of the emperors in China led to the demise of the imperial dynasty, and the final result was all attributed to the evil of women, the so-called femme fatale. Even the four beauties in China, who have the reputation of sinking fish and falling geese, can't get rid of the tragic fate of becoming political victims. How do women in China strive for women's liberation and make a true evaluation of their contribution to society, which is generally recognized by the society still dominated by men?

Regrettably, China Women's Day, which we saw today, is only a festival in the eyes of a large part of women in China. It's just that a unit has issued a prize or bonus, which has become a holiday for women to have a day off. We have completely forgotten the spirit of March 8 Women's Day, the connotation of March 8 Women's Day, and the responsibility that women have to bear for their equal status.

Women in China hope to gain universal recognition and understanding from the society. First of all, women should affirm themselves, understand the true meaning of "half the sky" and make constant contributions to society. As long as the social mechanism is sound, women's contribution will be rewarded. Decision-making mistakes are always caused by cognitive mistakes, so the key is to know yourself. The road to success in any career begins with knowing yourself. President Mao Zedong once advocated: "Women in China are a great human resource, and we must develop this resource to fight for building a great socialist country ..." Its purpose is to encourage women to enter the society and strive for freedom and equality.

The times are changing, and people's ideas should also keep pace with the times. The grand cause of the new century provides a broad stage for women to display their talents. In the new era, women should further establish the spirit of "self-esteem, self-confidence, self-reliance and self-improvement", face the new situation and new tasks, persist in emancipating their minds and seeking truth from facts, and be brave in innovation and pioneering with the spirit of keeping pace with the times.

We are proud as women, and there are so many great women around us. Sisters, do you want to join this great ranks? Great women must make great sacrifices. Are you willing to devote your life to this great cause? Sisters, may you work hard, may future generations see you in the great ranks, and may they say to you: I praise you-great women.
