Today's Video: Women's worth

Today is International Women's Day (IWD), a day in which we celebrate the accomplishments of women throughout the world as well as recognize that much still needs to be done to prevent gender inequality, discrimination, and prejudice. 2010 marks the centenary anniversary of the first IWD and the this year's theme is "equal rights, equal opportunities: Progress for all."
