Summary

Episode 87 is the first of a many-headed beast that, hopefully, everyone enjoys and learns from. I explore multiple pieces of media stemming from the tumultuous period of American History, the 1960s and 70s. I introduce to you the series entitled, “Important Women Who Did Important Stuff”! Tonight, along with my best friend and special guest host, Alison, we take a look at the Hulu Original Series, Mrs. America, and give you a glimpse into the lives of the key figures in the battle for the Equal Rights Amendment. We also cover an in-depth lesson on how to share memes with friends on Facebook, and rage over the childish reactions by adults over a young girl’s entrepreneurial venture. In the following weeks, I will continue to explore the series, as well as cover the books, The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan, and The Truth Will Set You Free, But First It Will Piss You Off by Gloria Steinem. I will also offer the research I found about our major players, Steinem, Friedan, Phyliss Schlafly, and Shirley Chisholm.
