The state of women in their struggle for the right
DEAR EDITOR,
When women are seen, counted, and in positions of leadership, the whole world benefits. This is the fundamental theme, which the world at large has focused on to mark the occasion of International Women’s Day. The world will benefit as women are heard and this was widely magnified on Sunday as Oprah Winfrey sharpened the clarity to host the TV platform to showcase the state of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, confirming that she is the Queen on for a TV talk show. In a pandemic world, women are challenged daily for their resilience, facing the home environment, work atmosphere and the outside world in general, fighting for freedom, equality, recognition, recognition, acceptance and opportunity. Kamala Harris recently broke the glass ceiling to gain world attention last November, when she was appointed Vice President of US President Joe Biden in the most powerful nation on earth. At home, First Lady Arya Ali swings the baton at the helm, leading an army of wealthy women occupying many key ministerial positions to govern the Guyanese public interest. These women are educated, determined and progressive and have a mission to stamp their authority not to be underestimated. They also have an agenda to raise the bar for women and read and follow a path to Guyana, with an interest in raising the status of women and caring for their welfare satisfactorily and effectively.
It’s a Man’s Man’s World’s World, written by James Brown and Betty Jean Newsome, recorded on February 16th, 1966 and reached No. 1 on Billboard’s NY R&B chart. Unfortunately this kind of alienation underlines the importance of women; satiates the predisposition bias where a woman is at home; irritates prejudice and inflates the male ego! Although there is a predominantly gender imbalance in the workforce, women tend to dominate the teaching, nursing and administrative professions. The world is changing and the new face is widely held by Deepshikha Deshumkh, a wife, daughter-in-law and mother who wears many hats with ease as she juggles and multi-task skilfully with life as well as a filmmaker and entrepreneur. She is a symbol of strength and courage and as a mother, she exemplifies the power to organize, delegate, work to a schedule and be disciplined. Her advice is for women to leave the comfort, believe in yourself, have faith, be environmentally aware and seek a platform to apply your talent.
Women have had a rough year, and Vice President Kamala Harris knows that. In her speech to the European Parliament on International Women’s Day, an event aimed at celebrating the empowerment and leadership of women during COVID-19 times, Vice President Kamala Harris called on nations to build a world that works for women. “In doing so, it is not just an act of goodwill,” said Harris, “but a show of strength. If we build a world that works for women, all our nations will be safer, stronger and more prosperous. “Canada on Monday took a step to ensure that its upcoming spring budget, which will also outline a promised post-pandemic stimulus package, includes measures to get women working and tackling gender inequality. Finance, Chrystia Freeland, “Canada’s future prosperity and competitiveness depends on women’s ability to participate equally – and fully – in our workforce.” She has pledged a national childcare plan as a stimulus package worth up to C $ 100 billion over three tears to support women and their domestic needs. this crisis, ”said Freeland.
US President Biden last week congratulated Swati Mohan, a Leadership and Management Engineer in NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab Persistence team, after as a leader, a robot successfully landed on planet Mars. He also has a maze of women on his management team. Twelve American men have walked on the moon. The last Apollo astronaut left his footprint there in December 1972. Now, half a century later, NASA plans to send people back to the moon. NASA’s new program is called Artemis, after the legendary Apollo twin, and the goal is that the next footprint on the moon will be made by a woman. The Artemis program is not just for women, who run it largely. Charlie Blackwell-Thompson is NASA’s first female launch director. Despite women’s many advances to key positions around the world, “Our world is simply not working for women yet,” according to Kamala Harris. Anupria Goenka, an actress, is known to be a strong voice for gender equality and women empowerment. “It is quite ironic that, at a time when we have women in positions of power, many of us are still being denied our basic rights, and equality of opportunity is still a myth which is why pay disparity continues to be an issue, ”he said. , adding, “What worries me is that women are judged on how they dress and how they speak, whether in personal or professional circles. If we do not adhere to society’s definition of morality, we are called all sorts of names and accused of sending signals to invite men. “Everyone is encouraged to do their part in spreading awareness in creating a society that gives men and women respect and opportunity that can lead to a change in people’s minds.
