International Women's Day: 100 Years

On this, the 100th anniversary of International Women's Day, we thank all the women who have come before us for their hard work and perseverance. We thought we'd share this Historica Minute we came across on twitter today via the Historica-Dominion Institute.

Tonight we celebrate the occasion with a special presentation of Café Galt to explore the history and relevance of IWD, and to look at issues facing women around the world today.

And finally, please enjoy this selection of archival photographs tagged with "women" from our Flickr the Commons site!
