So many of the social life's aspects have changed for women in the years. Starting with the right for education and ending with gender equality - all of this didn't happen overnight, and many badass women had to sacrifice their personal lives for a greater cause. Women's Equality Day celebrated on August 26th in the US, commemorates the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution, granting women the right to vote. It was certified in 1920, despite being introduced many years earlier in 1878, and since 1972, every president has published a proclamation for Women's Equality Day. Only because of the strong women in history we have reached this point in our society.
Starting from female Samurais in the early 1800s and ending with Stephanie Kwolek, who invented Kevlar (yes, a woman invented that!) this list of women who changed the world will shed some light on the 'weaker' gender. And without some of these pioneers, we wouldn't be this advanced in such spheres as neuro-surgeries, chemistry, and even programming.
Scroll down and take a look at our list of famous women in history. And, ladies, you might get inspired by these women in history to reach for your goals, no matter how impossible they might seem.

There's so much detail in this picture... for one thing, it appears these female firefighters are mostly native Hawaiians (although the one at the front of the hose appears to be at least part African-American as well). Also, behind the first 4 ladies, there's one looking in the direction of the water, and if you follow her gaze, there appears to be someone IN the water, swimming, or floating. You can see the head, and at least one arm or leg sticking out next to them (pointed toward the pier). Also, behind the 4th girl on the right of the pic, there's another woman, wearing those white & black penny loafers or whatever they were called, who appears to have fallen over the hose. --------------- Like I said, a LOT of detail, and a lot more to the story behind the pic than just the fact that it's women holding the fire hose!!
Maureen Mower 9 years ago
It's possible the person in the water is a sailor from one of the burning ships - possibly needing rescue. The gal who tripped over the hose might have been turning toward the water to jump in and help get him to shore. That's what any firefighter would do if someone were in trouble, right?

Rosa was chosen by the civil rights activists to repeat this act, originally done by a black teenager, who did it unprompted and was arrested. Her courage inspired other activists, wanted to use it as an iconic event to galvinize the movement, but the girl was deemed an unsuitablee role model because she was an unwed mother. So Rosa was approached for the task, not exactly sure how they made sure it received press, while the original event went unnoticed.

Tattoo is a form of physical expression that was restricted for women back then. If you look at the images she had chosen, it clearly demonstrated a story on her skin, but not through her voice. In a documentary about this woman, she said that she felt oppressed and unable to express such grievances. Therefore, she expressed them on her skin and inked other women's stories on their skin as well. This is why she changed the world.

I could care less about sports at all myself. This woman's achievement may be less than significant that some of the others on the list. Her contribution still matters though. It was another male dominated area that she broke through the barrier of. Women shouldn't be excluded from anything they want to take part in because they are not male.
JillKesteleyn 10 years ago
These women, one by one, brought us where we are now. Maybe this girl skateboarding didn't change the world much that day, but she inspired a lot of women to do what they love and because of them, we live now in a time where women indeed can (less or more) do what they want.

These Four Female Pilots Leaving Their Plane At The Four-Engine School At Lockbourne AAF (Early 1940s)
AmandaPreller 10 years ago
:( I do not understand why this question keeps being asked. At this point and time in history, we are taught about a majority of male innovations, philosophies, ecetera, so from my point of view it is to be able to point out to children of the world that females can be seen as equals to men, have been standing by their side and encouraging girls to follow their dreams of flying an airplane, being a mathematician, or even a scientist (which even, I, a 30 year woman needed reminding that I should be able to do). If you think it should just be 'pilots' for whatever reason (which I would very much like to understand, as it is not the first time I've seen the question aired), there are more productive ways to express the idea and have it catch on. :) I hope you have a good day.

Angela Davis still believes that America can be transformed into a more equitable society.. She was persecuted by police, the FBI and Richard Nixon himself. She once said, “The real criminals in this society are not all of the people who populate the prisons across the state, but those who have stolen the wealth of the world from the people.”

Miss Colvin is the real Rosa Parks. She was replaced by Miss Parks for marketability reasons. Miss Colvin had a child out of wedlock (she was molested as a teen) and she was darker skinned than Miss Parks. It was Miss Colvin's defiant stance on a bus that inspired the Rosa Parks publicity stunt. Miss Parks was brave, horrible things could have happened to her in retaliation for standing her ground. But she was a stand-in for Miss Colvin, whose experience was not staged but a fact of her everyday life. Read about her.

"There is no strong evidence to support the idea that Marić helped Einstein to develop his theories.The couple's first son, Hans Albert, said that when his mother married Einstein, she gave up her scientific ambitions. Einstein remained an extremely fruitful scientist well into the 1920s, producing work of the greatest importance long after separating from Marić in 1914. She, on the other hand, never published anything. Marić was never mentioned as having been involved with his work by the friends and colleagues of Einstein, who engaged in countless discussions of his ideas with him. And perhaps most notably, Marić never claimed that she had ever played any role in Einstein's scientific work, nor hinted at such a role in personal letters to her closest friend, Helene Savić." I'm just quoting Wikipedia. Please, if you imply or hint on the fact that Einstein stole his theories from her, then include sources and develop the thought.
GregFernandez 10 years ago
Debating with people like that is useles.... I'm ok thinking maybe she helped him sometimes with ideas or something like that but we can't say she made his work. Do you think he had hidden earphone when he had to develop his theories and she wasn't there? :') You can't be Albert Einstein and an impostor in the same time haha. Plus, Eistein intelligence comes first from physical he had du to his early birth, as theories say. It's said that his brain -wich has been preservated with formaline- was anormaly small. A smallness that reduced neuronal connections and allowed nerons to communicate faster. Wich means that, no matter what you can think, Einstien will still having been billions of times more intelligent than 90% of the world including you -okay, maybe inculding me too.

Moxie Miscellany 5 years ago
The Lancet medical journal, 1994 publication. She herself said that it was good to see the suffering "accept their lot" and suffer, because "the world gains much from their suffering." She had a close relationship with the Haitian dictator and tyrant Jean-Claude Duvalier, who was charged with crimes against humanity for his abuse of fellow Haitians. It's a matter of public record that her hospitals were not only understaffed, under-supplied, and completely unhygienic (like using tapwater to clean needles that were then reused), but also intentionally kept that way under her orders. The German magazine Stern estimated that only seven percent of the millions of dollars Teresa received was used for charity, and it is known that she received 12.5 million from the guy behind the 80s housing loan crisis. And yet she refused to buy bread for the hospitals, even when there was plenty of money to do so.

Simone de Beauvoir (French writer, intellectual, existentialist philosopher, political activist, feminist and social theorist) wrote for a French magazine in 1971 « The Manifesto of the 343 » Here is the translation of the intro : « One million women in France have an abortion every year. Condemned to secrecy, they have them in dangerous conditions when this procedure, performed under medical supervision, is one of the simplest. These women are veiled in silence. I declare that I am one of them. I have had an abortion. Just as we demand free access to birth control, we demand the freedom to have an abortion. » By writing this text, these women exposing themselves to criminal prosecution (in France, you could be put in jail for having or helping for an abortion). Contraceptives became free in 1974 and abortion became legal in 1975. Thanks to her.

I always get so pissed when I think about how unfair this was and how terribly her colleagues W&C acted, saving all the fame and credit for themselves and forgetting her.
