Run Like A Girl
In 2016, we – the Nursing Clio editorial collective – were excited to be living in a historic moment that (we believed) would see the election of the United States’ first women president, Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Y’all know how that turned out.
Well, it’s 2024, and we have another shot at seeing (/making) something historic happen. Kamala Harris is the nominee for the Democrats. It’s time to RUN LIKE A GIRL. As hard as you can, as fast as you can, with all the strength of a raging fire. And to celebrate, we’re sharing our RUN LIKE A GIRL series.
If you have a rabble-rousing, fabulous, shocking, or just plain fun RUN LIKE A GIRL snippet from history that you want to share, be sure to pitch us today!
