"Morgan was at the center of some of the defining moments of what came to be called second-wave feminism, expanding upon the achievements of the suffragists a half-century earlier. In 1968, she was among the organizers of the first protest against the Miss America pageant, joining fellow activists in tossing their bras (soon mythologized as burning) into a “freedom trash can”. The 1970 essay anthology she edited, Sisterhood Is Powerful, is considered one of the essential texts of the modern women’s movement."

エロス+虐殺 (Erosu purasu gyakusatsu; Eros + Massacre), dir. Yoshida Yoshishige (aka Yoshida Kijū)
Reading about Seitō, I had to think of this incredibly artistic political film about Itō Noe and Ōsugi Sakae by one of my favorite directors of all time, which I'd hereby like to recommend. Watch the 3.5-hour original cut if you can.

“A feminist is anyone who recognizes the equality and full humanity of women and men.” — Gloria Steinem

💖 What would women’s lives look like today if Gloria Steinem had never been here?
Women would still have fought, but the fight might have been less visible, less connected, and easier to ignore. Gloria Steinem helped turn experiences women were expected to keep private into public demands for change.
A look at the light she left behind and what we do with it now. 🔥🗽

#GloriaSteinem is a #litmus test. An easy measure of political position, in this case separating #feminism from #imperialism.
#Steinem didn't just work for a #CIA front: she ran one. She described the CIA as:"liberal, nonviolent & honorable". That's not just 3 lies in 3 words; it's an erasure of the horrors which CIA proxies & regimes inflicted on millions of women from Chile to Indonesia.
Steinem paved the way for Bush's regime to market invasions as pro-women.
Gloria in execrable deo. 😡

from Judith Levine:
Gloria Steinem is a second-wave feminist icon for everyone except second-wave feminists.
She was not chosen as a leader by the movement, or any part of the movement. Rather, the press chose her because she was heterosexual, white, educated — and politically moderate. It didn’t hurt that her breakthrough article was “A Bunny’s Tale,” in which she went undercover as a Playboy Bunny.

👩 Gloria Steinem has died at 92.
From A Bunny’s Tale to Ms. magazine, she spent decades challenging sexism and fighting for women’s rights🐰
But how much has really changed since the 1960s?
🪧 What do you think her greatest legacy will be?

"The truth will set you free, but first it will piss you off."
Rest in power, Gloria Steinem. Thank you for spending a lifetime on the front lines of the fight for equality, showing us what it means to see the world as whole. Your legacy will echo for generations. 🕊️✨ #GloriaSteinem #Feminism #votefromabroad #democratsabroad

Out of Style
Much has been written of two famous women, each style unique, who chose to speak through their clothes and hair. Accessorized, so stylized, many fantasized, but their looks were beside their gifts. Out of style, we fashion sartorial expression to complement that which makes us brilliant. The way in which we choose to stitch together our own self portrait so that another may interpret is always deliberate, even when dressing down. Iconic […] -

"We deny the right of any portion of the species to decide for another portion what is and what is not their 'proper sphere.' The proper sphere for all human beings is the largest and highest which they are able to attain to."
The Enfranchisement of Women (1851)
