World Tuberculosis Day marks March 24, 1882, when Robert Koch announced the discovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis — the bacterium behind a disease that still kills more than a million people every year. National Cocktail Day celebrates the mixed drink in all its forms, from the 1806-era definition of “bitters, spirits, water, and sugar” to the craft-bar complexity of today. International Day For Achievers was created to recognize individuals who have overcome significant obstacles to reach their goals. Day of Remembrance for Truth and Justice is observed in Argentina and internationally to commemorate the victims of the 1976 military coup and the Dirty War that followed. From a laboratory in Berlin to a Buenos Aires disappearance — March 24 holds the weight of history.
