We’re back from our WomenGirlsLadies event at Harvard, orchestrated by the Harvard Women’s Center–a center which didn’t exist, we learned, until just 2 years ago. Not that Harvard hasn’t been in need of this center or anything before then (ahem). Shout outs to Susan Marine, Sandra Ullman, Natasha, Annemarie, Andreas, and the rest of the crew over there for bringing us to town (we had a blast!), but mostly for the important work you do on campus all year long.
We always try very hard to turn the panel (subtitle: A FRESH Conversation about Feminism across Generations) into audience conversations, and after our presentation this time a very interesting Q&A ensued. Courtney is writing about it in her column today over at The American Prospect, so stay tuned.
And ohhh but it’s been an interesting week in the land of intergenerational feminist convo around the election! In case you missed it, here’s a quick recap:
Amy Tiemann in Women’s eNews (with a follow-up on her blog)
Amanda Fortini in New York Magazine
Rebecca Traister in Salon
Linda Hirshman in Slate
Commentary to follow–I’ll be doing a podcast this morning over at MojoMom.com with my 2cents on it all and promise to post the link.
