A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Law and justice are not always the same. When they aren't, destroying the law may be the first step toward changing it. -Gloria Steinem, activist, author, and editor (b. 25 Mar 1934)

A lot of the most impressive people I've ever met were women and were far more likely to have recently read a book. #GloriaSteinem #Feminism #Equality #SmashThePatriarchy #WomensHistoryMonth
"Too many people are trying to find the right person instead of trying to be the right person." ~ #GloriaSteinem

A post shared by Gloria Steinem (@gloriasteinem)

There’s so much interesting to like in this post, but of particular interest to me is Gloria Steinem’s use of Wilson’s Memindex as her diary/to do list in 1960! Special thanks to my new friend Julian O’Shea who tipped me off to this little bit of history.
Gloria Steinem on Instagram: "I’ve been voting for a long time, as you can see by my 1960 datebook! A lot has changed and there is still a lot more progress to be made, but campaigns like Zohran Mamdani’s give me hope. Like a tree and like movements, his campaign has grown from the ground up. In my experience, top-down politics has never worked in the long run. New York is the most diverse city on earth and his campaign has harnessed that diversity. He makes me proud to be a New Yorker and a voter! Early voting is open now in New York City and Election Day is November 4th."

In a city as diverse as New York, voting for change requires a grassroots approach. Zohran Mamdani's campaign is a testament to the power of community-driven politics. By harnessing the city's diversity, his campaign has grown from the ground up, giving hope for a better future. As a voter, it's time to make your voice heard in the 2024 elections.
