Today in 1944, 15-year-old diarist Anne Frank was arrested with her sister, parents and four others by the Gestapo after hiding for two years inside a building in Amsterdam. (Anne and her sister, Margot, died at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.) #EndGenocide #FreePalestine

Scottish activist Flora Drummond was a fearless operational leader of the British militant suffragette movement. Nicknamed "The General," she famously marshaled massive #WomensRights parades thru London & Edinburgh on horseback & wearing a military-style uniform. She was born #OTD in 1878.

The world still weeps...now due to the resurgence of fascism in our nation... On this day in 1944 Anne Frank was arrested in Amsterdam by German Security Police following a tip-off from an informer who was never identified... Her entire family except her father would be dead in less than a year...

Historian of science Margaret Rossiter (d #OTD in 2025) coined the term #MatildaEffect (1993). Named after suffragist Matilda Joslyn Gage, the Matilda Effect describes a systemic bias where women's scientific achievements are ignored, minimized, or directly attributed to their male colleagues. 1/3

Ophthalmologist Dr. Agatha Aboe led the medical campaign in Ghana to eliminate trachoma (leading infectious cause of preventable blindness globally). It worked. Ghana became the 1st country in sub-Saharan Africa to eliminate the disease, 2018. Now she's helping other countries do it. #WomenInSTEM
