India’s First Female President
Pratibha Patil was elected India’s first female president on Saturday. Though the office is viewed as mostly ceremonial, the election is seen as a positive step for the country’s girls and women. You can find the full story in Sydney Morning Herald article. With America facing the opportunity to elect it’s own first female head-of-state, it makes me if a country that claims to be a progressive as ours is ready for such a change. Only the next year will tell if we are.
