US Holidays - National Women of Color Day

On March 1 in the United States, National Women of Color Day has been celebrated since 1986. The National Institute of Colored Women took the initiative to celebrate such a day. Over time, the institute received International status and the day, accordingly, became international. Since then, every year a lot of time has been devoted to this day, a plan for its implementation has been considered, and each year certain educational and coordinating information messages have been introduced for women of color in the United States. On this day, the rights of colored representatives of the fair sex are discussed - residents of Africa, India, Spain, Italy, Alaska, Latin America, the Pacific Islands, Asia. In addition to discussing their problems, assistance is provided in finding solutions. Most US charities are actively involved in Women of Color Day. Competitions, concerts, promotions, discussions, flash mobs and other events are organized in support of the rights of these women. In the United States, traditionally, on March 1, every organization holds an event related to Women of Color Day. During the struggle for women's rights, known thanks to Clara Zetkin, America also took an active part - many reforms were carried out, but the fate of women of color began to be considered much later. The Institute of Colored Women decided to create a community in which relations would be maintained between representatives of different nationalities, problems of a different nature would be solved - the goal of this community is to unite this category of people, coordinate them with each other, unite them, so that if various issues arise based on interethnic hatred, the girls and women knew where to turn, understood their rights and responsibilities, and felt the protection and guardianship of the state. This is how the symbol of this community was born - Women of Color Day, which immediately acquired national and later international status. In the rest of the world, this day is celebrated in few places; this is most likely due to the fact that different nationalities of women do not have such pronounced properties, that is, this day is inherent in the inhabitants of the United States and is strictly celebrated in every organization, large and small in terms of the number of employees.
