The Ongoing Feminist Fight w/ Rebecca Traister
Women’s rights and protections are in peril. Roe vs. Wade is hanging by a thread as the Supreme Court is set to pass judgment on the most direct threat to a woman’s right to choose in nearly 50 years. Nobody is more connected to this fight than Rebecca Traister, a feminist writer, commentator and activist who joins Ali to talk about feminism today. So many of us, women and men, are angry about reproductive rights - but also LGBTQ+ rights, voting rights, labor protections, environmental protections, etc. but don’t know what to do or where to begin. Rebecca shares her expertise on how to fight for issues that matter to you, the importance of knowing the history, standing shoulder to shoulder, and what we can do to raise engaged kids - girls and boys - aware of inequalities around them.
If you have questions or guest suggestions, Ali would love to hear from you. Call or text her at (323) 364-6356. Or email go-ask-ali-podcast-at-gmail.com. (No dashes)
