Women are joining together all over the world to mark the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day on March 8. Women poured through London’s streets on Tuesday, singing loudly for women’s rights. The banners they carried trained a spotlight on the range of issues still at hand: health, education, and politics to name a few. Among the demonstrators in London was the musician and activist Annie Lennox. She said the fight for women’s rights isn’t over. "There is still so much work to be done with regards to parity for women, equality for women’s rights all around the world—not only in the developed countries," Lennox said. "We’re here in the UK and there’s actually four other marches going across different bridges across the entire world." The march on London’s Millenium Bridge Tuesday signified the Bridge of Peace that organizers say they want to build through conflict zones all over the world.(27)Women gathered in the conflict-ridden eastern region of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Afghanistan and Iraq. In London, a number of leading female politicians and activists joined the demonstration.(28)One of them was Dr. Habiba Sarabi. In 2005, she was made Afghanistan’s first and only female governor. She says she wants to empower women in her country and shows the international community that Afghanistan is moving forward. "Working as a female governor is not an easy job. It was for the first time in Afghanistan," Sarabi said. "But I did it because I want to prove that women can do in a society like Afghanistan something that men can do."
26. Why did women in London pour through streets on Tuesday?
27. Apart from London, where else did women gather across the world?
28. What do we know about Dr. Habiba Sarabi?
