What kind of sentiments? | HBR Talk 317
from Honey Badger Radio · host Honey Badger Brigade
Last week, we learned a bit about the the Seneca Falls Convention and began reading through the declaration of sentiments written by Elizabeth Cady Stanton, looking for that “about equality” vibe feminists keep telling us we should be getting from their work. So far, it’s been a puerile, whiny, vitriolic mockery of the Declaration of Independence. We’ve trudged through similarly toxic writing by feminists and been told it’s not representative of their movement, but if the manifesto of the suffragettes isn’t representative, what is? Tonight, we’ll continue our examination. We hope we’ll find some True Feminism™ in this document, but we’re not holding our breath.
