Gloria Steinem has long been considered the mother of feminism.

Since her days of political activism in the ‘60s and ‘70s, the journalist and author has spent her life campaigning for women’s rights. And at 82 years old, there’s still no stopping her.

In this interview with Mia Freedman, Gloria discusses the idea of selfies as empowerment, why she feels sad for Kim Kardashian, plastic surgery and the future of feminism in popular culture.
