Welcome to the Globalrose Blog

Mother’s Day in America didn’t begin as a commercial holiday, but rather a call for peace and women’s activism. In 1870, horrified by the human devastation of the Civil War, Julia Ward Howe, the author of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic”, conceived of an International Mother’s Day in which women would come together and promote general interests of peace. Julia Howe believed that women needed to rally together for peace in order to keep their sons from having a war to fight in where they would be sent to kill other mothers’ sons. In Boston, she initiated a Mothers’ Peace Day observance on the second Sunday in June which was held for a number of years. She, along with Anna Jarvis, rigorously championed an official celebration of Mothers Day and the declaration of an official holiday. Her idea was widely accepted but was later replaced by the Mothers’ Day holiday now celebrated in May.

It makes sense that a women’s crusade for peace was crystallized through the eye of motherhood. A powerful and commonly recognizable model, ‘Mother’ speaks to the common theme of human experience regardless of our nationality, race or tribe.

From the beginning of Egypt’s history to the end of its reign, Isis was the greatest goddess of Egypt. She was a beneficial goddess and mother whose love included every living creature. Isis was also the purest example of the loving wife and mother and it was in this capacity that the Egyptian people loved her the most.

Early Christians honored their Mother Church and their mothers at the same time. In the U.S., it was Julia Ward Howe, author of the “Battle Hymn of the Republic,” who first suggested calling mothers together to protect their sons from the ravages of wars. Joining the cause was Anna M. Reeves, who advocated celebrating all mothers. Their efforts were not in vain and the first official Mother’s Day celebration, recognized by President Woodrow Wilson, began in 1914.
