It’s the month of women and we can’t go through it without mentioning few important moments that changed the whole history.
These moments were all remembered because of women fighting for their and the rights of others.
Women are known as great fighters who managed to get through the times of strict rules by the government forbidding them to have equal rights.
In the constant work and fight for their rights, we honor these women who sparked the change we wanted to see in the world.
