The 38th Festival was established for 113 years.
Since the first half of the 19th century, women from all over the world have made unremitting efforts to fight for their own interests, and in order to commemorate the important contributions of women in the economic, political and social fields, "March 8" International Women's Day came into being. March 8, 1911 was the first International Women's Day.
The influence of the 38th Festival in China:
1. Culturally.
The International Women's Foundation Day, a women's festival around the world, has gone through a history of 100 years in the 21st century; It has been 90 years since the first celebration of this festival by Chinese in 1924 to 2015; Since the birth of China's first batch of 10,000 "38 Red Flag Bearers (Collective)" in 1960, this glorious title has also been more than half a hundred years old. Generations of Chinese women have commemorated the festival in a variety of ways: marches on the Northern Expedition, fundraising on the streets of the Anti-Japanese War, demonstrations during the Civil War, Ruan Lingyu's suicide, Ding Ling's essays, and so on. The 100-year history of International Women's Day has formed an indissoluble bond with the women's movement in China and has become a special public cultural space for the women's movement in China.
2. Politically.
The commemoration of International Women's Day by women from all walks of life in Guangzhou, China, also has a very important position in the history of the Chinese women's movement, "not only won the right for Chinese women to celebrate their own festival for the first time, but also embodied the great alliance of revolutionary women's forces, and became a symbol of the formation of a women's united front between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party during the first period of cooperation between the KMT and the CPC." "A new era has been opened in the history of the Chinese women's movement."
3. Ideologically.
Unlike other festivals, such as National Day, Arbor Day, Christmas, etc., International Women's Day has its own distinct gender attributes - it is a women's exclusive holiday. Strikes, rallies, demonstrations, etc., with the theme of the commemoration of International Women's Day, are one of the most important venues for Chinese women to form a new "gender" identity since the 20th century. <>
