While celebrating #WomensHistoryMonth it not only reminds me that ladies are smarter than men but also that when women succeed #America succeeds.
Instead of castling it Women's History Month. Why not Women's Future Month?

I’m also celebrating every female who has faced the effects of marginalization.

These images are the women in my life, with the exception of my late grandmoms Tete, and Caridad, and my MoM Margarita.

From top to bottom are Elenita, Elena, Natasha, Rosie, and Sabrina.
