#6 Half of the Sky

March 4th, 2010

“Women hold up half the sky.” - Chinese Proverb or quote from Mao Tse Tung, based on web articles.

This is the quote on which the book “Half the Sky” by Nicholas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn (husband and wife, married in 1988) derives its title.

I haven’t read the book but after attending a showing of the Event Half the Sky, I want to read it.  It was heart wrenching, inspiring and incredible.  My heart is still trembling from the information and stories.
