Martha Rampton, a professor of social history and director for gender equity at Pacific University and I discuss the topic of modern feminism. In the modern day, feminism has become a polarizing topic, the goals are more fractured and more complex.
Women would not be where they are today without feminism. The ability to vote, own property, have bodily autonomy and more were gained from the unified social movement towards progress in the form of gender equity. We talk about the waves of feminism, the core issues affecting women today, concepts such as patriarchy and privilege, global feminism and touch on how men come into play in all this.
