Jessica Valenti on the International Women's Day

This video was done by Jessica and Evan Derkacz of the Alternet. I find the silence on my local public radio station fascinatingly informative. No program about the women in Iraq being kidnapped or raped, for example. Or the women who suffer tremendously in the warfare in Congo. Nothing on any positive change. Nothing at all, actually. So I raise my glass of nectar to remember all those women who suffer and die in war zones and I also raise it to honor all those who work to make this world a better place for women.
