From the story of the holiday
The history of the festival is traditionally connected with the name of Clara Tsetkin who had created a revolutionary women’s group. It was decided to choose a day which would be considered a birthday of women’s proletariat.
Half a century later the activists of the social-democratic organization of New York remembered the protest demonstrations of textile-workers of 1857 and on March 8,1908 they organized a demonstration for women’s rights protection.
