Today marks International Women’s Day—a time to reflect on the progress of feminism and recognize the influence of women everywhere. In a heartwarming twist, a fourth-grade student has taken it upon herself to create a Female Empowerment Club, encouraging her peers to be leaders. This inspiring moment is a reminder of how far we’ve come, and how much further we can go.
Twitter user Mia recently shared a delightful note her friend, a fourth-grade teacher, discovered tucked beneath a student’s desk. The message, likely penned by a young girl, read: “Do you want to join a club for female empowerment? We are the leaders.” Talk about an initiative!
Absolutely, we want in! While we might not be ten years old anymore, the spirit of empowerment is ageless. So, pass us a note too, please! We’re thrilled to see young girls championing such an important cause, and we can’t help but cheer them on.
Let’s take a moment to remember our own fourth-grade experiences. Back then, I was belting out songs from “Aladdin” and “The Little Mermaid” during recess, lost in a world of Baby-Sitters Club books and obsessing over the latest episode of “Saved by the Bell.” My youthful activism was limited to drawing a few posters on saving the whales, which I’m sure you remember was all the rage in the ‘90s.
Unlike today, discussions about feminism and empowerment were scarce in my childhood. However, today’s young girls are growing up in an environment where these conversations are not only happening but thriving. They’re being encouraged to excel in all subjects, including math and science, and to see themselves as capable of achieving great things—far beyond traditional roles.
From daughters participating in Women’s Marches to young viewers being inspired by films like “Hidden Figures,” we’re witnessing a transformative shift. There’s still work to be done, but this student’s initiative gives us hope that the next generation is truly on the right path.
