70 - A.K. 47 - Endnote to The Soviet Woman, A Full and Equal Citizen of Her Country
In this episode, Kristen R. Ghodsee reads an endnote included with the text of Kollontai's 1946 article The Soviet Woman - A Full and Equal Citizen of Her Country. This endnote was included in 1984 by the Soviet editors of the collection of Kollontai's writing to highlight the real strides the Soviet Union was attempting to make toward true women's equality. Ghodsee discusses the Cold War context for the endnote and whether or not the Eastern Bloc really did live up to its promises with regards to women's rights.

A Note from Kristen Ghodsee:
"January 2021 will be the two year anniversary of the A.K. 47 podcast. To honor this anniversary, my daughter designed the nice three-inch matte stickers seen here.
She explained to me that podcasts are recommended by the algorithms based on the number of reviews they have. She thought it would be a good idea to encourage listeners to review the podcast in places like Apple Podcasts and Podcast Addict in order to increase its future visibility.
So if you leave a review, you can send a screenshot of that review and your mailing address to this email address: [email protected].
We will send one of each of the four stickers below to the first 200 listeners who send in their reviews. International listeners are also welcome to submit reviews, and will we do our best to get the stickers out to you in a timely fashion (considering the inevitable postal delays).
Let’s Celebrate Alexandra Kollontai and Keep up the good fight!"
