Brutus Day
Two years before, Brutus had joined Gaius Cassius Longinus in the plot against the Roman dictator Julius Caesar, believing he was striking a blow for the restoration of the Roman Republic. However, the result of Caesar's assassination was to plunge the Roman world into a new round of civil wars, with the Republican forces of Brutus and Cassius vying for supremacy against Octavian and Mark Antony. After being defeated by Antony at a battle in Philippi, Greece, in October 42 B.C., Cassius killed himself. On October 23, Brutus' army was crushed by Octavian and Antony at a second encounter at Philippi, and Brutus took his own life.

Sadly , they're also undereducated and underpaid. In New York State, women are more likely to be poor today than they were in 1989.ii Fostering girls' education and building their self-esteem is critical to breaking the cycle; 88 percent of women who finish their college degree move permanently out of poverty.iii"
