My feminist credentials are a little yellowed with age and weariness, but Melinda Casino over at BlogHer makes me want to shine them up and put them on the mantelpiece. She considered my musings on Garrison Keillor important enough to feature in her Women’s Equality Day post.
It’s a nicely put-together post — I’m envious of that layout — with links to some great blogging and I’m flushed with pride to be included.
I just love the concept of Tennessee Guerilla Women, and you’ll find some great period graphics over there at their site. Those of my readers interested in visuals ought not to miss either of these links.
The Guerilla Women also give us this tidbit:
In the 72 years it took to win the vote, those who were dead set against the idea were many and even included The New York Times.
How did we ever get the idea that the NYTimes is progressive?
Other important links in this post so be sure to click through and give it a look. And thanks very much, Melinda, for the plug. (Is this what I’d want to call a “shout out?”)
Credit for all this goes to Joanie DiMartino, who first called my attention to the Keillor piece.
