Courtesy of Marco (always lookin out for me, that one!) comes this YouTube retrobite in which Moses Znaimer interviews Gloria Steinem in 1968 about being a “groovy chick” and an ex-Playboy bunny. Highlights:

Znaimer to Steinem: “You’ve been described as a chick with a good sense of the vibrations.”

Steinem on reporting circa 1968: “To report with compassion is important now, because we’ve been so inundated by the statistics.”

Life Magazine to Steinem: “We want a writer, not a girl.'”

Znaimer on Playboy Bunnydom: “I thought you had to be stacked to be a bunny girl.”

Steinem to Znaimer: “A lot of that is plastic dry cleaner bags, really.”

P.S. I just started a category called “feminist history.” Were you there? Got pics to share? You send ’em, I’ll post ’em!
