First Ladies: Eleanor Roosevelt (Part One)

Welcome to parts one of two of Your Angry Neighborhood Feminist's coverage of the most infamous First Lady of all time, Eleanor Roosevelt. In this week's episode, you'll learn about Eleanor's early life, her romance with Franklin Delano Roosevelt (and the family drama that went with it) and her life up until World War II as First Lady of the United States. Join me next week, where we'll cover the rest of Eleanor's life, a secret gay romance, and the legacy she left behind.
