In This Decade And Forever, Females Need To Empower Females

Empowering females is an essential key transforming the society that we live in today; a society filled with sexist views, attitudes, and behaviors. As women, we constantly get the short end of the stick in business opportunities, economic growth, and social circumstances. When females are pitted against each other for trivial reasons, it only makes matters worse.

The best support a woman can receive is that of another woman. It creates a force, an army, that is more likely to withstand any battles coming her way. Whether it be in school, in a career, or in life, the power of a woman determined to rise up against corruption is a force to be reckoned with.

It's 2020. We, women, need to start empowering one another.

Empowerment is a process. Females might start out with the belief that they can't do something, simply because they're afraid of the risk, of judgment, or failure. That's where empowerment comes in. Women may initially believe that they can't, but over time, change happens. When a woman is empowered, she knows that she can.

Young women in today's society have more choices than ever before in this life. With this level of self-awareness and self-confidence, these women can be catalysts to change.

All females carry a power within themselves that is capable of anything they set their minds to. It is up to her on whether or not she decides to relinquish that power to the world and say, "I know who I am. I can do this."

We can provide one another with the resources necessary for success. We can become advocates for change in our own community.

There are women who run their own businesses, or women who make their voices heard in the political field, or who have started up their own philanthropic organizations to better their community. Every single day, the numbers grow because these women decided to show up despite the odds that were stacked against them.

Women have come an incredibly long way in the past decade...but there is still change to come and more work to do.

We can only continue to move forward with this new trend if women support, empower, and encourage women. We simply cannot expect one another to accomplish our goals if we don't help each other in reaching those goals. Because let's face it: being a woman, in this world, is not an easy task. Sometimes, being a woman just sucks. That is why we need each other.

We keep looking for ways to make this world better, but in reality, we are the solution.

Brush off the nonsense surrounding the stereotypes about women. We need to be there for each other. We need to be kind to each other, caring, and compassionate.

We cannot afford to stay silent any longer. It's time to stand up, once and for all, for each other. 2020 is the year that women empower each other for good.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
