I know many of yall have seen her, the powerful little 4 foot tall, ponytail wearing girl with her hands on his hips, fearlessly staring down a bull.
She's called the "Fearless Girl" and she'll be staring down the Wall Street bull @ least until February 2018. She was set to be moved on April 2nd, but thanks to more than 50 NY politicians coming forward to present Mayor Bill de Blasio with a signed letter to make her a place there permanent. She was created by artist Kristin Visbal and installed by State Street Global Advisors. She found her rightful place ahead of International Women's Day to bring attention to gender pay gaps and the lack of gender diversity on corporate boards int he financial sector. NY Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney said the Fearless Girl was "created to inspire and personify the resilience of women everywhere." I thought she was going to permanently be there and it's a little disappointing now knowing that she won't be. It's a very powerful thing to see pictures of her and other women and even little girls posing alongside her. Hopefully another replica of the Fearless Girl can be made to go in her place once this one finds her new home.
