Each year International Women's Day (IWD) is celebrated on March 8. The first International Women's Day was held in 1911. All around the world, International Women's Day represents an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of women while calling for greater equality. Each year a general theme is chosen, in 2015 the theme is âMake It Happenâ, effective action for advancing and recognising women.
The above image is of Kate Wilson Sheppard (1848-1934) In âWhite Ribbonâ, vol. 20 no. 230, 18 August 1914. Original photo is in the Alexander Turnbull Library. The photo was used in newsletters and publications celebrating the centenary of the Women's Suffrage Petition in 1993, and was transferred to Archives New Zealand by the Ministry of Women's Affairs.
Kate Sheppard:
New Zealandâs leader for the Womenâs suffrage movement was born in Liverpool in 1847. Kate Malcolm migrated to Christchurch in 1871 and married merchant Walter Sheppard. In 1885 she joined the new WCTU, which advocated womenâs suffrage as a means to fight for liquor prohibition. For Kate Sheppard, suffrage quickly became an end in itself. Speaking for a new generation, she argued, âWe are tired of having a âsphereâ doled out to us, and of being told that anything outside that sphere is âunwomanlyâ.â
Sheppard travelled the country, writing to newspapers, holding public meetings and lobbying members of Parliament. Opposition was fierce. As Wellington resident Henry Wright wrote, women were ârecommended to go home, look after their children, cook their husbandsâ dinners, empty the slops, and generally attend to the domestic affairs for which Nature designed themâ; they should give up âmeddling in masculine concerns of which they are profoundly ignorantâ.
In 1893 Kate Sheppard and her fellow suffragists gathered the signatures of nearly 32,000 women to demonstrate the groundswell of support for their cause. A 270-m-long petition â then the largest ever presented to Parliament â was unrolled across the chamber of the House with dramatic effect. Despite the opposition of Premier Richard Seddon, the Electoral Act 1893 was passed by both houses of Parliament and became law on 19 September. The news took New Zealand by storm and inspired suffrage movements all over the world. [Archives New Zealand holds the 1893 Womenâs Suffrage Petition]
Kate Sheppard continued to work at home and abroad for womenâs rights â from contraception to freedom from the corset. She became president of the National Council of Women of New Zealand (NCW) and editor of The White Ribbon, the first newspaper in New Zealand to be owned, managed and published solely by women. In 1909 she was elected honorary vice-president of the International Council of Women.
Sheppard outlived two husbands, her only son, and her only grandchild. She died on 13 July 1934, a year after the first woman MP, Labourâs Elizabeth McCombs, entered Parliament.

via Instagram ift.tt/2atiBOe Every day. We will see how many days in a row I'll stay consistent. I flipped one side of the house and rolled the other side, took it all the way around. Looks easy at first but before long... It burns. This thing is not light. Still sore from yesterday. We'll see how it feels when I do it tomorrow. ---------- #dailygrind #focus #fitspo #fitness #keepmovingforward #makeithappen #work #hustle #tireflips

Every reason you have to NOT to launch your project is perfectly valid â but even the most logical reasons are still just an excuse. Excuses never change the past, change the world or inspire you on to greatness, but they most always delay the future.
Your ducks will never be in a row. The stars will never be in alignment. It will never be the perfect time.
Jump and the net will appear.

They know my name 'cause I told it to them,
But they donât know where and they donât know
When Itâs coming, when Itâs coming.
Otherwise I might be pulling my hair out all day.
Sacred cows are fattened on the conventional wisdom. Donât be put out to pasture with the herd.
Question. Challenge. Test. Poke. Prod. Provoke. Go. Do. Innovate. Change. Win. Rewrite. Repeat.
The world needs more purple cows. The world needs more WOW!
Donât just make it work. Make it remarkable.
