Though there is some conflict regarding the origin of International Women's Day, scholars generally associate it with the 1907 march of New York's textile workers. The march brought some 15,000 women to the streets from the needle and textile industry to demand better working conditions and shorter hours. International Women's Day was formally recognized by the United Nations in 1975 and is now celebrated in over 140 countries. We have collected some of the thought provoking comic strips to help commemorate the day while taking the time to remind us of the importance of making comics more inclusive and representative of the world around us.
