History-making Women in New York City
New York City - History-making Women show how:
l to r: Mobilium Global’s Ralph Simon & Connie Lim, the great singer/ songwriter whose landmark song “Quiet ? - I Can’t Keep Quiet”, became the global anthem of The Women’s March on Washington and around the world the day after Trump’s inauguration, & ‘Pussyhat' Project founder Krista Suh, whose pink protest hat got thousands of the 1.5m women marching on Washington & more world-wide wearing the Pink Pussyhat, & activating the global ‘Pussyhat’ protest. Connie Lim said: “Once the Trump election happened I said, 'Sorry, ladies, I have to release ‘Quiet' and I will do it now'. That set off an unlikely chain of events that landed Connie in D.C. where she joined a group of strangers she'd only rehearsed with one time, to perform the single over-and-over for adoring crowds. Among them was filmmaker Alma Har'el, who captured a performance on her smartphone in a video that went viral & has since been retweeted hundreds of thousands of times to become the global anthem for women in the now unstoppable 21st century women’s movement, creating the modern era’s definitive global protest song. Political passion personified !

Hadfield is the first Canadian to walk in space. An engineer & former Royal Canadian Air Force fighter pilot, Hadfield has flown two space shuttle missions & served as commander of the International Space Station (ISS). He was responsible for a crew of 5 astronauts & helped run dozens of scientific experiments dealing with the impact of low gravity on human biology. During the mission he also gained popularity by chronicling life aboard the space station, taking pictures of the earth & posting them through Twitter, Facebook, Google+ & Tumblr to a large following all around the world. He was a guest from space on television news & talk shows & gained massive popularity by playing David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” on the ISS's guitar in space. Fortunately David Bowie would have seen & heard Hatfield sing his song in the 'tin can' that is the ISS - a perfect location to sing & bring great meaning to the Thin White Duke’s unforgettable lyrics.
