Something really strange came up at my place of work today. The company has locations all over the world so the communications department asked one or two women from each location for a paragraph or two on their perspective on International Women's Day.

The response from the location in Czechia is really baffling to me.

It's not easy to celebrate this day in Czechia because it is burdened by a communist regime that appropriated it as a celebration of working women and used it for propaganda. For decades it was typical that Czech women received red carnations from their husbands, but fortunately that is changing.

I'm really not sure what to make of this. It feels really forced, especially in the context of a larger piece celebrating the working women of this company while also calling for more equality and representation in leadership.
