International Lefthanders Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
August 13 is designated International Lefthanders Day. It was first observed 13 August 1976.[1] As its name suggests, it is meant to promote awareness of the inconveniences facing left-handers in a predominantly right-handed world. It celebrates the left-handers, who are from seven to ten percent of the world's population.
