Tuesday Bassen – owner of Friend Mart
For the first time ever, March 8th will officially recognize “A Day Without a Woman.” Women across the globe are participating in a general workers strike to continue the movement that started with the Women’s March back in January. In doing so, they aim to show the world just how much everyone depends on women — especially in the workforce.
Of course, the right to protest comes with an undeniable amount of privilege. If you can’t take off work without risking your livelihood, support women by wearing red or by calling your local representative.
One thing we all can do to is support women-owned business and products, not just today, but every day. We asked our readers to share their favorite lady businesses with us. We will be expanding this list in the next few months, so please add your fave women-owned businesses (with address and web link) in the comments! #RISEUP #SisterhoodIsPowerful
