March is Women’s History Month. It’s a time we set aside to honor women’s contributions in science, business, sports, social movements, and so many other fields. For centuries in America, women's contributions in these fields were often overlooked. As a result, they were omitted from history. That’s why we celebrate Women’s History Month and the opportunity it gives us all to get a more complete picture of our American history. Women’s History Month 2021 will take place from Monday, March 1-Wednesday, March 31, 2021.
