"Feminism is the radical notion that women are people." - Marie Shear
Feminism has a long and storied history and we should not forget the importance of those events as we move forward in the feminist movement. In this talk, Colleen Bunn gives an impassioned history of the feminist movement and how those triumphs of the past are still relevant to our future as a feminist movement today.
