Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg writes, “When I'm sometimes asked when will there be enough [women on the Supreme Court] and I say, 'When there are nine,' people are shocked. But there'd been nine men, and nobody's ever raised a question about that.” (Georgetown, 2016). The JPIC Calendar for March invites you to explore the lives and initiatives of those who made it possible for women to sit on Supreme Court today and who continue to fight to overcome the systematic sexism that still exists in Canada and the United States.

Universal Human Rights Month
“Where, after all, do universal human rights begin? In small places, close to home — so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. [...] Unless these rights have meaning there, they have little meaning anywhere. Without concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world.” – Eleanor Roosevelt

(Artisans of Hope 1)
