Gloria Steinem

" A feminist is anyone who recognizes the equality and full humanity of women and men."

 

Gloria Steinem, born in 1934, is an American journalist and social political activist who became nationally recognized as a leader and spokeswoman for the American feminist movement.

 

During her childhood, Steinem and her family traveled around the country in a trailer led by her father, who was buying and selling antiques simply to get to the next place. Growing up, she witnessed and anti-woman bias in society, especially seeing the way her mother, after divorcing, was being treated by doctors who disregarded her evident distress and mental illness. 

 

Steinem graduated from Smith College as a member of Phi Beta Kappa, the oldest academic honor society in the U.S., which has promoted and advocated academic excellence. 

 

Her activism includes signing the "Writers and Editors War Tax Protest" pledge, pledging to refuse tax payments in protest against the Vietnam War, and she also protested against the South African apartheid system.

 

In her speech "Address to the Women of America." she stated that people discriminate based on race and sex because it is easy and "visible differences have been the primary ways of organizing human beings into superior and inferior groups and into the cheap labor on which this system still depends."

 

In 2015, she joined an international group of 30 leading female peacemakers and became an honorary co-chairwoman of the 2015 Women's Walk for Peace in Korea, which called for Korea's demilitarization and reunification.

 

Steinem is currently an honorary co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America.

If

by Rudyard Kipling

 

If you can keep your head when all about you

Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;

If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, 

But make allowance for their doubting too:

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,

Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies,

Or being hated don't give way to hating.,

And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;

 

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim,

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two impostors just the same:.

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, 

And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools;

 

If you can make one heap of all your winnings

And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,

And lose, and start again at your beginnings,

And never breathe a word about your loss:

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew

To serve your turn long after they are gone,

And so hold on when there is nothing in you

Except the Will which says to them:"Hold on!"

 

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,

Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,

If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,

If all men count with you, but none too much:

If you can fill the unforgiving minute

With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,

Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,

And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
