  6. You shall be deified as a progressive heroine,
    a glorious lady bountiful,
    while outside there's a world to win
    and memories of madame guillotine,
    you shall silence the revolution too,
    sprinkle more crumbs from their cake,
    anything but smash the table
    on which their imperial all-consuming power depends.

  7. If you submit

    They'll give you a seat at their table instead of just crumbs
    they threw on the floor for you to clean up,
    it's not a glass ceiling but a banquet table
    through which you see the cleaners still
    and now they sweep up your crumbs as well.
    They'll offer you some of their power
    as long as you don't critique their shiny table,
    they'll court you in their gluttonous parties,
    atomize, divide and rule,
    celebritize, corporatize,

  12. Blood Rush | An anti-requiem for Gloria Steinem, a Cold War icon
    Her death should serve as a stark reminder: a feminism that aligns itself with the empire is no feminism at all—it is merely the soft edge of oppression.

  32. "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."
