A picture book inspired by the Long Fridayâa real event in Iceland that inspired women around the world to stand up, walk out, and march together for womenâs rights
Vera and Mamma are headed out for a march, but itâs not just any march: Itâs October 24 in ReykjavÃk, and on this day in 1975, the women of Iceland took the day off, walked out of their homes and away from their jobsâas farmworkers, butchers, and fisherwomen; wives, daughters, and childrenâand marched to demand equality and change, chanting: âI dare! I can! I will!â And they did, inspiring and empowering girls and women to make change, not just in their country, but all around the world.
