Transcript	BROADSIDE — simultaneous discharge of all the guns on one side of a warship...any strong or comprehensive attack, as by criticism...a song, chiefly In l6th- and 17th-century England, written on a topical subject, printed on broadsides, and sung in public... by a professional balladeer... The Random House Dictionary of the English Language, Unabridged Edition March 8, International Women's Day, commemorates the 1857 female garment and textile workers' march in New York City. These women united to protest the deplorable conditions under which they worked and to demand equality for all working women. The women's rights movement is a long history of women uniting to gain political, social, and economic rights. Today, there are women's groups throughout the world dedicated to the struggle to bring women into full e- quality with men. The women's movement crosses all the divisions of race, class, nationality, and age in its effort to break down the barriers of discrimination which prevent us from developing to our fullest human potential. In celebration of International Women's Day, the Houston Area Chapter of NOW is holding an Open House on Monday, March 8, at 8:00p.m. in the Mills Room, Midcity YWCA, 1521 Texas Avenue. Women from the foreign consulates at Houston will be honored. International Women's Day will be celebrated in Washington,too. Actions being planned include speeches by Congresswomen(There are 12 women in the House and one in the Senate.)and a strong appeal to Congress to sign the Human Rights Convention of the United Nations. The joy of celebrating this day comes from the realization that the women's movement is a truly international one because it exists in each of our minds. Through our united insights and actions, both political and personal, we contribute to its growth and help to shape history.
