Olympe de Gouges

from Stuff You Missed in History Class · host iHeartPodcasts

Olympe de Gouges is known primarily for her 1791 pamphlet “Declaration of the Rights of Woman and the Citizen.” But her writing and political activity went far beyond that one pamphlet, and she was actually executed for a completely different reason.
