In her book My Life on the Road, Gloria Steinem takes the reader on a wonderful
journey across America and through her life and understanding of feminism. The book is an easy read – from the
autobiographical details of Ms. Steinem’s life as a child and what led her to a
life on the road as a community organizer to her discussion of feminism and the
importance of listening to achieve intersectionality. This book is full of the stories of some of
the many people Ms. Steinem encountered on the road, and she spends a good deal
of time on her relationships with Native Americans. I loved reading this book – I was divided
between feeling that we are working toward doing the right things today and
feeling that all of this has been done before!
Overall, I found it to be inspiring, and I did not want it to end. (submitted by Julia Nichols)
