Women’s History Month: Facts, Findings, and Thoughts

Posted by DJ Nelson on March 18th, 2009

Here’s some fabulous posts, articles, and tidbits across the web highlighting women’s history month.

Camille Clifford: Gibson Girl - Feeling ashamed about your curves? Don’t be! Here’s a little history on “Gibson Girls”, which were at one time the standard of beauty.

Moms Mabley- It has been noted that she was one of the greatest comedians of all time…but you may not have ever heard of her.

Dororthy Dandridge- Do you know your film history? Dandridge was the first African American to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress.

10 Ways to Celebrate Women’s History Month- I suppose a little humor never hurt anyone.

Women’s History Month Book Giveaway- There’s a giveaway of 8 books. Contest ends 3/31/09.

Women and the American Revolution- Quick video on women’s roles during the American Revolution.

Firsts In Women’s Achievement- A list of firsts for women throughout history starting in 1715.

By the way, how come women’s history month can be celebrated each and every year without anyone saying “how come there’s no men’s history month?”, but let any other group whose history is not regularly taught come up with a celebration (whether it’s a month,week, or day), and people get outraged.

Don’t answer that question. It’s rhetorical.
