This is one dance party 106-year-old Virginia McLaurin will never forget. To celebrate Black History Month, watch her fulfill her dream of visiting the White House and meeting President Obama.

106 years old and still dancing. Now that is something I want to live and still be doing. Truly a heart warming. Feeling. And she got to visit the White House and see Barack and Michelle Obama

I'm in the tenth grade in Detroit and I'm in a black empowerment group (AMC :Activist Making A Change) with my friends. I personally, look up to you.. But, do you have any pointers for us?

Remember to have joy, and be as carefree as possible when you can. You’re the same age as my sister, and that’s all I want for her… to enjoy being 15. Speak up/speak out when you have to. And remember to protect/guard your spirit.

Do you have questions about the Zika virus, who it could impact, and what we’re doing to combat it? Amy Pope from the National Security Council at the White House and Dr. Anne Schuchat from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are taking your questions. Ask by tomorrow at 4pm ET in the White House Ask Box.

You might’ve already seen a notification about this Answer Time at the top of your dashboard, but you’ve probably also heard yet another scary Zika story today that’s left you with more questions than answers.

These two have answers.

They’re taking your asks until 4 p.m. today (the 3rd of March), which is also when they start answering them. It’s all happening at @whitehouse. Go ask, go listen, go learn.

This is interesting. I had no idea about this virus at all. Going to look more into it

On nomenclature.

According to academia, “modern” means “the 1920s”, “new” means “circa 1996”, and the “future” is what people sixty years ago thought the year 2000 would look like. What word can I use to describe stuff that’s happening now?

In a feministic two-for-one, we all get to celebrate International Women’s Day today and Women’s History Month all month.

There are an incredible number of Tumblrs out there channeling their pride, frustration, and solidarity into art. Art to be reblogged and shared and appreciated. So let us point you to our International Women’s Day tag. It’s a beautiful thing to behold.

This is a nice picture with. I like the change of colors and also I like how they are talking about expression through art. I think that is such a amazing way to release our emotions and have the feelings to the soul

In honor of the first day of Women’s History Month and Super Tuesday, here are two suffrage cartoons from the Carrie Chapman Catt Collection.

Carrie Lane Chapman Catt was an internationally recognized suffragist, feminist and political activist. The Carrie Chapman Catt Papers focus on the history of the women’s suffrage movement, with material pertaining both directly to her and to the movement as a whole. There is a wide range of material in the collection, including correspondence & memorabilia, cartoons, and photographs.

The collection contains approximately sixty editorial cartoons pertaining to suffrage which appeared in newspapers around the country from ca. 1912 to ca.1920.

To see more of the Catt Collection, click here.

In the chaos of election season, it’s easy to lose sight of how recently women—especially women of color—were denied the right to vote in America. The Nineteenth Amendment wasn’t ratified until 1920. After World War I, after the Ford Model T, and after 60-plus years of feminists like Carrie Chapman Catt agitating for change.

In a democracy, your vote is your voice. At a time when one half of the population was silenced by the other, Chapman Catt and the suffrage movement claimed their right to speak. But it would be another 45 years until the passage of the Voting Rights Act that women of color were effectively enfranchised.

Wow. I have no idea that is really good to know. I like women's history month information. Learning about this is intriguing indeed

Don’t look now, but it’s trends. POW!

Since the mathiest day of the year (Pi Day) lands right in the middle of Women’s History Month, take a sec to appreciate all the ways Tumblr is appreciating one of the most mathily momentous women in history.

I didn't even know this oh wow. That is something nice to know. You learn something new everyday

Janet Mock is an amazing writer and activist. Due in large part to her activism, transgender women and their rights are getting the attention they deserve. Thanks for putting the badass in intersectionality, Janet!

The badass feminists at @ladypartsjusticeleague made a strong-and-successful-woman-a-day calendar for Women’s History Month. Follow along for a daily post about a successful woman, or if you just want help remembering the date.

If activist and writer Janet Mock’s activism has inspired you, and you want to do something for trans rights, stop by The National Center for Transgender Equality to learn how you can fight back against the dumb, dangerous bathroom-restriction bills that various states across the U.S. are looking to pass.

You don’t have to stop with learning women’s history, after all. You can help make it.
