前言  

Women's Equality Day——celebrated on August 26th in the US, it commemorates the 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution, granting women the right to vote. It was certified in 1920, despite being introduced many years earlier in 1878, and since 1972, every president has published a proclamation for Women's Equality Day.

妇女平等日——美国在8月26日庆祝这一天，它标志着宪法的第19个修订案，这个修订案赋予了女性投票权。妇女平等日早在1878年已经引进美国，而1920年才有证明文件正式出台，1972年起每个总统都会发布一个妇女平等日的宣言。
