I am redoing my previous proposal about Chinese Weddings. International Women’s Day is celebrated annually on March 8th and it began as a Socialist political event. It was widely celebrated in the Soviet Union and it is very similar to the holiday “Mother’s Day”. The major difference, however, is that International Women’s Day celebration honors every woman, every age, and every status. I am interested in researching how this holiday is celebrated in New York and how it compares and differs to how it was celebrated during the times of the Soviet Union.
