Here are some of the best signs from the 2020 Women's March. 

Today, protesters around the country united for the 4th annual Women’s March, where women and allies rallied in support of reproductive rights, immigrant rights, gun reform, climate justice, and more. 

Protests were held in cities like Washington, D.C., New York City, and Los Angeles.

At one point, protesters gathered to perform the global feminist anthem ‘A Rapist in Your Path’ in Washington, D.C.. The song was first written and performed during national protests in Chile last year and has since been sung around the world. In New York, Evelyn Yang opened up about surviving sexual assault and why she decided to speak out. Evelyn, who is married to Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, first spoke about being abused by her OB/GYN in an interview with CNN. Some of the signs spotted at the protests included phrases like, ‘So much wrong, so little poster’ ‘Public Cervix Announcement: F*ck the patriarchy’ ‘Does this ass make my country look small?’

The Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke these words in 1963, but this was not the speech that would go down as one of the most important addresses in US history. King spoke these words in Detroit, two months before he addressed a crowd of nearly 250,000 with his resounding "I Have a Dream" speech at the March on Washington for Freedom and Jobs on August 28, 1963. Several of King's staff members actually tried to discourage him from using the same "I have a dream" refrain again. As we all know, that didn't happen. But how this pivotal speech was crafted is just one of several interesting facts about what is one of the most important moments in the 2...

A Brief History of Skittles - Taste the rainbow

#Candy #Skittles #TastetheRainbow The candy that we are so familiar with today first came into existence in 1974. Skittles spent the first five years of their lives solely in Britain since it wasn’t until 1979 that North America got a chance to taste  the  rainbow. There is much speculation surrounding the creator of Skittles, as nobody really knows exactly who first made them. One story suggests that a British man named Mr. Skittles looked at a rainbow one day and wondered how it would taste. Other sources state that the Wrigley Company, founded in 1891, created candy and other confectionery, including Extra chewing gum. However, although Wrigley produces Skittles today, it is widely accepted that an unknown British company was the original manufacturer. After three years of being imported to North America from the UK, Skittles started being manufactured in the US and Britain. There were very few flavors compared to the varieties available today. Consumers enjoyed gra...
