First Lady Honors Women at International Women's Day Event
"Today we salute women whose triumphs are written bold on the pages of history, and we call attention to those for whom the pages have yet to be written -- women from Afghanistan to Zanzibar, who work to achieve a better life and equal rights for girls around the world. And with our help, I believe that we'll all ultimately succeed." ~ Mrs. Laura Bush, the First Lady of the United States of America at the USAID's Celebration of the International Women's Day on Friday March 7, 2008.
