Re: “Strings Attached,” Comics, March 4

Exactly 100 years ago 15,000 women marched through the streets of New York City demanding shorter working hours, better pay and voting rights. They were a group of individuals tired of being discriminated against due to their gender and undermined solely because they were women. That day in 1908 now continues to be acknowledged as International Women’s Day on March 8th around the world.
