Celebrating Women: From Mothers Day To International Women’S Day, Judith Ezekiel Aug 2011

Celebrating Women: From Mothers Day To International Women’S Day, Judith Ezekiel

Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Faculty Publications

This paper compares two different secular holidays: International Women’s Day (IWD) and Mother’s Day in its French and U.S. incarnations. While both holidays have tortuous histories, used and abused, I argue that the former can be, and has been (re)claimed by feminists around the world as a holiday with potential positive impact for women and feminism, whereas the latter is irremediably beyond redemption and antagonistic to women’s interests.
