Vivian Gornick: Don't Miss Her

With the sharp turns of campaign 2008 no longer churning our stomachs, women need someone to assess where we stand now as a movement.

Vivian Gornick has done just that in an op-ed piece in today's LA Times.

She reflects on the last 200-plus years of the women's movement, starting with Mary Wollstonecraft in 1792 and concluding with the female-bashing done to Hillary Clinton while racist remarks against Barack Obama were off limit.

Don't miss it!
