5. This one goes out to all the ladies! Tuesday is International Women's Day!
It's a call to action to continue fighting for women's equality.
To take a close look at what still has to be done to create a world that's diverse, equitable, and inclusive, it's also a chance to recognize how far women have come socially, economically, culturally, and politically.
This day has been marked for more than 100 years, starting in 1911. Now it's celebrated around the world.
