The content below is an internal FreeConferenceCall.com email. No, we don’t usually post these. But this was just too good not to share. It’s a heartfelt reminder from our president, Joshua Lowenthal ā a reminder that not only our team but every single one of us is acknowledged, respected, powerful and intelligent.
Hello FCC Family –
Today across the planet is International Womenās Day! Weāre a global company who celebrates its customers and employees alike, and simply will not ignore the remarkable social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women around the world. We recognize and enthusiastically support the ongoing struggle for equal rights.
At FreeConferenceCall.com, our customers teach us that women are leaders, innovators, and more-often-than-not the conscience of our souls. We recognize that sexism hurts everyone, and that when gender equality is valued, everyone is better off. Everyone.
So no matter what your gender or position in our shared corner of the world, step up, speak out and take fearless action against inequality. In the end, I find Australian feminist Dale Spender sums it up perfectly:
āFeminism has fought no wars. It has killed no opponents. It has set up no concentration camps, starved no enemies, practiced no cruelties. Its battles have been for education, for the vote, for better working conditionsā¦for safety on the streetsā¦for child care, for social welfareā¦for rape crisis centers, womenās refuges, reforms in the law. If someone says, āOh, Iām not a feminist,ā I ask, āWhy, whatās your problem?āā
Happy International Womenās Day ā to all the women and men at FreeConferenceCall.com.
Josh Lowenthal
President
