Day 32
Posted on February 1st, 2010 by roger
That is day 32 of this year in the Gregorian calendar…
In 1865 President Abraham Lincoln signed the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, in 1998 Lillian E Fishburne is promoted to rear admiral and becomes the first female African American to achieve that rank.
Last year Jóhanna Sigurðardóttir is elected the first female Prime Minster of Iceland and the first openly gay head of state in the modern world.
A day to celebrate moving forward and leaving behind intolerance and bigotry.
