International Working Women’s Day (Mar 8) was a Socialist instituted holiday in the early 20th century to recognize and honor women in the struggle for emancipation from capitalism, colonialism, imperialism, and sexism—-not a day to honor war criminals like Hillary Clinton; establishment shills like Kamala, Nancy, and Michelle; or functionaries like Victoria Nuland.

I will use this time to focus and honor on women who make a difference without being co-opted by the establishment.

Stay tuned for more installments!

Synopsis

Consumer advocate and environmental activist Erin Brockovich was born in Kansas in 1960. While working as a file clerk at a Los Angeles law firm in 1992, Brockovich uncovered documents that ultimately led to more than 600 residents of Hinkley, California, filing a lawsuit against utility giant PG&E. The $333 million settlement they received is the largest of its kind in the history of the United States. The story of Brokovich’s life and involvement in the case was the subject of the 2000 film Erin Brockovich, which starred Julia Roberts in the title role. Since the film’s release, Erin Brockovich has continued to work as a consumer advocate and environmental activist.

great interviews. due to the incredible attack on women and children this International Women's Day by the identity challenged as well as the outright predators backed by wacko "doctors" and "teachers" I think it IS important to acknowledge that this day is about women and not about men who pretend to be women.
