Sadako Sasaki was only two years old when the atomic bomb was dropped on her hometown of Hiroshima. She survived, but dealt with complications throughout her short life. In sixth grade, she started suffering from chronic fatigue and dizziness; later, she was diagnosed with leukemia. To pass the time in the hospital, Sasaki became obsessed with folding origami paper cranes. (In Japan, legend has it that if you fold 1,000 paper cranes, you’ll get your wish; hers was to be well again.) As she worked, she inspired her classmates and others across the country with her will to live—but at the age of 12, she passed away. A few years after her death, a statue was erected in her honor. Called the Children’s Peace Monument, the statue is located at the top of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. To this day, children from all over the country and the world make and send (or leave behind) their own folded paper cranes.
In honor of #WomensHistoryMonth, we're spotlighting lesser-known heroes—from recent and ancient history—who helped pave the way for other women.
