Shouldn't we all be feminists? This blog serves as a platform for the discussion of gender inequality. Change starts with acknowledging that there is a problem. We must begin to make changes, however minor, in our own thinking, and in doing so challenge detrimental societal norms. Change will come with active involvement and open discussion from BOTH genders. Let's start talking.

2013: Celebrating Inspiring Women

Too rarely do we take the time to appreciate the accomplishments we've made, even if we are still keeping in mind how much more we have to do. What better way to celebrate the new year than to take a look back on some of 2013's most inspiring women. This video honestly made me tear up; I am so happy to know that there are such inspirational women out there, many of whom are fighting so hard to  make things better for all of us. Learn more about all of these women here, and make sure to watch below! Again Happy New Year to you all!






Any inspiring women you think the video missed? I definitely think Wendy Davis, the Texas politician who fought endlessly in the Texas senate this past summer in attempts to block a bill that would create many new abortion regulations. Wendy has announced that she is running for governor of Texas in 2014. She is truly an inspiration. What woman or man fighting for feminism inspired you the most this past year?
