Today’s New York Times has at least two articles that focus on women and politics directly (I’ve only separated the parts of the paper and these two stand out - I haven’t read them yet). And I spent nearly six hours yesterday immersed in the topic of women, the media and politics, with thousands of characters types in live-blogs and interviews I’ve yet to write about.
So - start here:
New York Times Magazine: The Hillary Lesson
New York Times Week in Review section: She Just Might Be President Some Day
I will have much to say about both of those articles and the reality I’ve faced cracking ceilings I didn’t even know were there until someone tried to thrust it down over my head. But if you think we’re in a post-feminist era? Honey, we haven’t begun to see how women can and will lead - but be prepared to witness women with a lot of battle scars. We still have a long way to go to a gender-neutral society of respect and support.
