👏👏👏 On this day, we pay tribute to the one who was Alva Myrdal, Swedish sociologist, diplomat and politician, militant for peace, laureate of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1982.
In his will, Nobel requested that those awarded the peace prize fulfill at least one of the following three requirements: work for the "reduction of military forces", for the "organization of peace congresses" and for "fraternization between peoples".
Her husband, Gunnar Myrdal, was a laureate of the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1974. They are the first couple to be awarded this prestigious title independently of each other. There are five other couples who have been awarded the Nobel Prize, but for the same project.

🌟✨☀️New year, new ideas.
As one of the directions we develop Feminism For Real is honoring the memory of those who made history for women's rights, we are launching a video series „in memoriam” dedicated to those people to we owe a lot
👏👏👏Without gratitude to our priceless ancestors, we cannot ask for more. Without their work, effort, risks and sacrifice, benefits such as the right to vote, education access, the right to drive a car, to own a property, a business, and the right to make choices in professional and personal life would not have existed. All these rights seem to us "taken for granted" or guaranteed from immemorial times", but it is not so at all.
So if you ever feel tempted to say "oh, but I don’t feel discriminated and I don't see the point of any feminist movement", don’t forget that all the privileges of today last only for around a century.
And they can be limited or canceled at any time.
🎗🎗🎗 In honor of all those who made these privileges possible, we created the "on this day..." series.
👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻We invite you to contribute to this series by proposing names that are representative of the history of women's rights.
We start with Simone de Beauvoir.
