August 20 - What's Happening with Feminism with Joan McGinn
Some people have felt that feminism is dead, but the phenomenal Women's March in response to the new administration showed that feminism is quite alive and kicking. Three and a half million people worldwide rose up in resistance to the misogynistic behavior and policies of this administration. What's next for feminism? Does there need to be a specific feminist voice in the next few years in the resistance, or will/should feminist voices fold into the larger class, race and LGBT movements? Is health care a feminist issue? What about jobs? Why do women continue to make so little progress in the gender/pay gap? Is the glass ceiling being shattered? Come to a lively discussion about these and more issues surrounding feminism.
