Happy International Women’s Day by da-AL

Why isn’t this celebrated more in the U.S., the way it is in other countries?!

Here I offer a tribute to Sister Rosetta Tharpe, an amazing lesbian woman of color who influenced even Chuck Berry.

First a brilliant performance…

Now more about her…

Which woman has influenced you most for the good?

Happiness Between Tails speaks to and from the heart. It connects lovers — of pets, authors, books — and of my still-unreleased novels, “Flamenco + the Sitting Cat” and “Tango + the Sitting Cat.” The stories are my love letters to all who fear they're too odd, too damaged, too old, too whatever to find happiness.

  1. I look very much up to mother Theresa (and Albert Schweitzer … 😉 )

    The Russians are very aware of this day. My female Russian colleagues always got flowers from their bosses on that day … if the bosses were Russians, or also from Russian male colleagues.

  2. A great day to celebrate! So many women writers, artists, athletes, politicians, teachers, rabbis, singers, cowgirls, leaders, followers, entrepreneurs, dancers, pioneers, secretaries, nurses, musicians, sailors, poets, architects, scientists, doctors, accountants, rebels (I love the rebels!) comics, journalists, chefs, actors, bus drivers, inventors, and mothers – especially all the mothers.
