7 Gifts to Get Any Feminist in Honor of Women’s History Month

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at NYU chapter.

It’s Women’s History Month, and what way to better celebrate the iconic women in your life than through gift-giving! This month, it is time to honor women throughout history who have impacted and left their mark on the world. It was through politics, the arts, education, or law, notable women like Frida Kahlo, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Beyoncé, Harriet Tubman, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and others changed the world for the better. To honor their legacies, we must continue talking about them and educating young men and women about their work. Here are some gifts for feminists who want to celebrate these women and so many others.

  • Support small businesses and buy this adorable “When There Are Nine” sweatshirt for any feminist or fan of the late notorious R.B.G. You can show your support by purchasing a gift from HarmonyByHaley on Etsy for a friend or yourself. Don’t miss out on this adorable and original sweatshirt! 
  • Female fine artists are constantly ignored and pushed out of the spotlight to highlight and promote famous male artists like Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Salvador Dali, and Vincent Van Gogh. Support female artists and help a friend learn about iconic female artists from different periods in history by gifting them with the book Women in Art: 50 Fearless Creatives Who Inspired the World, written and illustrated by Rachel Ignotofsky. Give this book as both a gorgeous coffee-table piece and an educational read to a friend! 

  • Give this unique and beautiful ring to any friend or family member who aims to shatter the glass ceiling in their lifetime.

This ring can serve as both a conversation starter and a cute accessory.

Get this as a gift for someone else, or keep it for yourself to enjoy with company. 

  • Gift any feminist or aspiring feminist with this incredible book adapted from a TEDx talk of the same name, We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
