The teaching of history to our young people, too frequently, may slide into a litany of the accomplishments of famous men, while omitting the equally important work of the opposite sex.

They spoke about the contribution made by great personalities like Maya Angelou, Amelia Earhart, Margaret Thatcher, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Kamala Harris, Malala Yousafzai, and Rosa Parks. The skit enlightened us that how each one of them had to fight for their place in the society.

Everyone was left inspired by these stories about women who stood up, spoke out, struggled through, and soared.
