Happy International Day of the Girl -- a day observed globally and created by the United Nations to acknowledge the gender inequality that exists worldwide -- #dayofthegirl "The female child is entitled to the same opportunities afforded the male child: the right to education, health care, a childhood, etc. The girl child should not be treated as chattle, a possession sold or forced into child marriages or forced at an early age to work to fund the schooling of the male child as happens in parts of the world. The fight for equal rights and equity starts from birth." -Preye Cobham, Esq., Attorney & Legal Advisor, Women Watch Afrika The fight continues! #InternationalDayoftheGirl #WomensRightsAreHumanRights
