The real story of the "March 8" — read, who KNOWS!
Who took to the streets of new York textile workers or prostitutes?
Version first official: "the Day of solidarity of workers of women»
The official version says that the tradition of celebrating March 8 is connected with the “March of empty pots”, which allegedly held on this day in 1857, textile workers in new York. They were protesting against unacceptable working conditions and low wages.
Interestingly, in the press then there was no notes about a strike. And historians found out that on 8 March 1857 – was a Sunday. Very strange to strike off.
Eighty one million two hundred ninety nine thousand two hundred fifty five
In 1910 the women's forum in Copenhagen German Communist Clara Zetkin called on the world to establish the "international women's day on March 8." She meant that in this day women will organize rallies and marches, and thus "to draw public attention to their problems."
Originally the holiday was called "international day of solidarity of women in the struggle for their rights." Date March 8 were summed up under the strike of textile workers, which in fact never was. Or rather was, but were on strike then, not textile workers. But more on that later.
This "holiday" is actively promoted inside woman Zetkin, a fiery revolutionary Alexandra Kollontai. The one who conquered the Soviet Union as the "great phrase": "to Surrender to the first comer man should just as easy as drinking a glass of water." March 8 became an official holiday in Russia in 1921.
The second version, the Hebrew is: the praise of the Jewish Queen
Historians are still "arguing" was Clara Zetkin Jewish. Some sources claim that she was born in the family of a Jewish shoemaker and the other a German teacher. However, the desire Zetkin associate 8 March with the Jewish holiday of Purim, ambiguous hints that he was.
So, the second version says that Zetkin wanted to connect the history of women's day, with the history of the Jewish people. According to legend, a beloved Persian king Xerxes, Esther, saved the Jewish people from extermination by his charms.
Xerxes wanted to exterminate all Jews, but Esther convinced him not what not to kill Jews, but to destroy all the enemies of the Jews, including the Persians themselves. It happened in day 13 of Arda on the Jewish calendar (this month is at the end of February – beginning of March). Praising Esther, the Jews have been celebrating Purim (the day of the massacre of Persians). Date the "celebration" was moving, but in 1910, she had it on March 8.
Third version, about prostitutes
The third version of the origin of the holiday, perhaps the most scandalous for all who are waiting with trepidation "international women's day".
In 1857 in new York women actually protested, but this was no textile workers, and prostitutes. Women of the oldest profession was required to pay wages to the sailors, who have used their services, but had no money to pay the prostitutes.
In 1894, March 8, in Paris prostitutes again demonstrated. This time they demanded recognition of their rights along with those who sew clothes or bake bread, and to establish special trade unions.
This was repeated in 1895 in Chicago, and in 1896 in new York shortly before the memorable Congress of suffragettes in 1910, where it was decided to declare the day as "female" and "international", as proposed by Zetkin.
She Clara Zetkin carried out such actions. In the same year 1910, together with his accomplice by Rosa Luxemburg, she put on the streets of German cities prostitutes with a demand to "stop the excesses of the police". Here only in the Soviet version of prostitutes was replaced with "women workers". published
