Gloria Steinem Instagram - We each can honor Ruth Bader Ginsburg by asking ourselves, "What would Ruth do?" Using this as a guide in our own lives will keep her with us. 

We can also honor what she said so recently: "My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed." 

The more we learn about her words and deeds, the more she will remain a force in our lives and the world around us. 

She left us a clear and precious legacy. It's up to us to keep her spirit alive.

Gloria Steinem Instagram - I have long worn this bracelet, modeled after Prison of War bracelets to memorialize Rosie Jimenez, the first woman to die from an illegal abortion after the Regan Administration blocked US federal funding of NGOs providing abortion counseling or referrals. It’s hard to see anything positive now, but as a hopeaholic, the majority of Americans don’t agree with the Supreme Court and we are lucky that many states support safe and legal abortion. We must not allow the Supreme Court to deny any state or any individual the right to choice. 

In this moment of national despair, I am proud to be a New Yorker, a place of reproductive freedom for all who live here or travel here. But no one woman is free until all women are free.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - Banning abortions does not stop the need for them, it just bans their safety. 

I remember far too many women who unnecessarily died from illegal abortions. Without safe access, women risk their lives. 

Tomorrow, there will be marches, rallies, and speak-outs all over the nation.  Remember, a movement is only people moving. #BansOffOurBodies

Thank you to my dear friend, Phyllis Rosser, who took this photo and to the @archivalagents for keeping it intact.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - I know personally how important it is for women to have full control over their bodies. If we deny women that, we deny women the right to be themselves.

For all those women in Texas, I will say to you what I said when asked what I would say to Melania Trump: "I have a guest room in New York."
Gloria Steinem Instagram - Here is a gathering in my living room in Manhattan. It’s part of the reason Trump lost the vote on this island, and a reminder that our own free will gatherings are the basis of democracy, free speech, and social justice. 

Thank you to my friends @livinlikelarz @heyitisruby @wendywecksell for bringing this group of women together to support @gloriasfoundation and share space together. We are communal animals, and in the days ahead we must remember that there are others who share our hopes and ideas for the future.

Gloria Steinem Instagram - I Stand With Stormy!

Stormy Daniels’ bravery and truth-telling expose grave abuses of power in this country. Despite this, she and her family are targeted with threats, intimidation, and systemic financial draining. Right now, there is a $600,000  judgement against Stormy for Trump’s legal fees from a case that was dismissed. 

Every dollar raised is an act of solidarity, not only with @thestormydaniels but with all who have been harmed or harassed for speaking truth to power. Link to support is in my bio.

Gloria Steinem Instagram - Dear Mayor Greg Fischer, ⠀
⠀
I join thousands of others in asking you to bring posthumous justice to Breonna Taylor, who was shot eight times in her bed by the Louisville Metro Police after they invaded her apartment looking for a drug trafficker already in custody. ⠀
⠀
Tamika Palmer is Breonna’s mother, and her small request in the face of huge injustice is easily within your power as Mayor and human being: "I want justice for her. I want them to say her name. There’s no reason Breonna should be dead at all."⠀
⠀
As you know, Breonna Taylor was an award-winning emergency medical technician and first responder in Louisville, who loved helping her patients and her community, and who made other people's lives better. ⠀
⠀
She protected you and your city. Now it's your responsibility to show her the same respect. ⠀
⠀
With hope, ⠀
Gloria Steinem
Gloria Steinem Instagram - As I often say, I just had to wait for some of my friends to be born - and that is so very true of @amandascgorman. Like most of us, I felt her words deeply when she appeared at the inauguration. I can’t wait to see what she does. I promise to live to at least 100 so I can see all that you will create, Amanda. Glad that 21 for ’21 and @themeteor gave us a chance to connect.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - I’m not celebrating my birthday at home this year, but I am celebrating my home on my birthday! I invite you all to join me (virtually) in my apartment to learn and explore some of the countless lives and stories of the women’s movement with @googleartsculture.

Gloria Steinem Instagram - It’s time that we choose our leaders from the whole population, not just half of it. I ran as a delegate for Shirley Chisholm when she ran for President in 1972. 100 years before that, the first woman Presidential candidate was Victoria Woodhull. And centuries before that, the people who lived here before Europeans showed up often had a more egalitarian system in which the leader was male, but a Council of Grandmothers appointed him and could replace him. Maybe we are just beginning to regain the equality that was already here. For instance, the suffragists gained their courage from Native American women who were their neighbors.

For the last installment of my Substack series of political writings, I am sharing a piece I wrote in 1970 called “What It Would Be Like If Women Win.” You can read it at the link in my bio.

Gloria Steinem Instagram - If you are single a woman with a credit card, you have Bella Abzug to thank. If Bella were still with us, she would be President -- she certainly deserved to be. From her time in Congress ushering in important legislation from Title IX to the Equal Credit Opportunity, to her enormous presence around the world, Bella wasn't just a force, she was the wind. I'm so happy @masterclass gave me a moment to honor her and to make sure her work and legacy isn't lost--neither its place in our daily life today or how we shape the daily lives of our tomorrows.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - Even when abortion was illegal and unsafe, one in three women had one at some time in her life. Now that abortion is safe and legal, a little less than one in four women do. Yesterday, the Supreme Court majority recognized this reality, despite two judges appointed by Trump, the accidental President, who doesn't give a damn about women and who craves the support of antiabortion evangelicals. And in too many states, there are still travel and money restrictions on a normal and essential part of healthcare. ⠀
⠀
For both women and men, democracy begins with power over our own bodies. We won't rest until all Americans of every sex, race and income live in a democracy.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - Forty-eight years ago, I was marching down Fifth Avenue to commemorate the first United Nations-declared International Women's Year 1975. Over 50 feminist coalitions banded together to express our demands, which included equal job opportunities and equitable wages, universal childcare, reproductive rights, civil rights for lesbians, freedom for political prisoners, and the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment. Nearly 50 years later, we are still marching and demanding these rights, and also still working closely in coalition across all social justice movements.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - I wrote The Nazi Connection for @ms_magazine over 40 years ago, though the words are as relevant as ever today. The power to make decisions about our own bodies is the first step towards democracy, so it comes as no surprise that authoritarian regimes resist our right to reproductive freedom.

Thank you @pioneerworks for revisiting this piece with me. For a limited time, you can hear me read it at the link in my bio.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - I was reluctant to speak at the Democratic Convention in 1972. But by the end, I had begun to learn how I myself could be more effective. I was learning that the best way to help was to influence the movements that embody the principles you believe in, and to use those movements to back the candidates who will deliver on those principles.

Voting is not the most we can do to assert our influence, but it is certainly the least. There are less than 100 days until Election Day. Do you know about vote by mail? Find all the tools you need to request a #VoteByMail ballot and to encourage others to help make every last vote count @votesaveamerica.

Gloria Steinem Instagram - In 1996, I delivered a speech at Salisbury State University about the power that women voters effect political change. I still think the words I wrote back then are true: Progress lies in the direction we haven’t been. Vice President Kamala Harris says it every day on the campaign trail. We’re not going back!

Gloria Steinem Instagram - Celebrating #TheGloriasMovie premiere tonight with some incredible cookies from @stacyscookielounge - I can’t quite believe these works of art are edible!

I am so grateful for the genius of Julie Taymor and all who brought this film to life. I hope this story - the story of a movement that grew by a groundswell of anger and hope - reminds us that change comes from telling the truth and knowing that you're not fighting alone.
Gloria Steinem Instagram - Democracy exists when everyone has the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies.

Here in New York, we have the chance to permanently protect our reproductive freedom in this state, including the right to abortion, by voting YES on Prop 1!

Whether you are voting early or heading to the polls on November 5th, make sure you commit to vote YES on Prop 1. We’re not going back!

Gloria Steinem Instagram - The reader letters that I get in response to books and articles mean so much to me. To know I’ve had some impact, or offered some helpfulness in someone’s life - I treasure those responses. So, I thank YOU, K.M. for the kind words that keep me going.

Revolution from Within has stayed in print for so long, I think, because the idea of self-esteem is so basic. Valuing the unique self within each of us is the source of democracy and rebelling against injustice. A new paperback edition is out today. Available through @littlebrown, @mcnallyjackson and more.

Gloria Steinem - 70.1K Likes - I have long worn this bracelet, modeled after Prison of War bracelets to memorialize Rosie Jimenez, the first woman to die from an illegal abortion after the Regan Administration blocked US federal funding of NGOs providing abortion counseling or referrals. It’s hard to see anything positive now, but as a hopeaholic, the majority of Americans don’t agree with the Supreme Court and we are lucky that many states support safe and legal abortion. We must not allow the Supreme Court to deny any state or any individual the right to choice. 

In this moment of national despair, I am proud to be a New Yorker, a place of reproductive freedom for all who live here or travel here. But no one woman is free until all women are free.

Caption : It’s time that we choose our leaders from the whole population, not just half of it. I ran as a delegate for Shirley Chisholm when she ran for President in 1972. 100 years before that, the first woman Presidential candidate was Victoria Woodhull. And centuries before that, the people who lived here before Europeans showed up often had a more egalitarian system in which the leader was male, but a Council of Grandmothers appointed him and could replace him. Maybe we are just beginning to regain the equality that was already here. For instance, the suffragists gained their courage from Native American women who were their neighbors. For the last installment of my Substack series of political writings, I am sharing a piece I wrote in 1970 called “What It Would Be Like If Women Win.” You can read it at the link in my bio.

Gloria Steinem - 32.3K Likes - If you are single a woman with a credit card, you have Bella Abzug to thank. If Bella were still with us, she would be President -- she certainly deserved to be. From her time in Congress ushering in important legislation from Title IX to the Equal Credit Opportunity, to her enormous presence around the world, Bella wasn't just a force, she was the wind. I'm so happy @masterclass gave me a moment to honor her and to make sure her work and legacy isn't lost--neither its place in our daily life today or how we shape the daily lives of our tomorrows.

Gloria Steinem - 29.8K Likes - Even when abortion was illegal and unsafe, one in three women had one at some time in her life. Now that abortion is safe and legal, a little less than one in four women do. Yesterday, the Supreme Court majority recognized this reality, despite two judges appointed by Trump, the accidental President, who doesn't give a damn about women and who craves the support of antiabortion evangelicals. And in too many states, there are still travel and money restrictions on a normal and essential part of healthcare. ⠀
⠀
For both women and men, democracy begins with power over our own bodies. We won't rest until all Americans of every sex, race and income live in a democracy.

Gloria Steinem - 29.5K Likes - Forty-eight years ago, I was marching down Fifth Avenue to commemorate the first United Nations-declared International Women's Year 1975. Over 50 feminist coalitions banded together to express our demands, which included equal job opportunities and equitable wages, universal childcare, reproductive rights, civil rights for lesbians, freedom for political prisoners, and the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment. Nearly 50 years later, we are still marching and demanding these rights, and also still working closely in coalition across all social justice movements.

Gloria Steinem - 28.3K Likes - I wrote The Nazi Connection for @ms_magazine over 40 years ago, though the words are as relevant as ever today. The power to make decisions about our own bodies is the first step towards democracy, so it comes as no surprise that authoritarian regimes resist our right to reproductive freedom.

Thank you @pioneerworks for revisiting this piece with me. For a limited time, you can hear me read it at the link in my bio.

Gloria Steinem - 27.2K Likes - I was reluctant to speak at the Democratic Convention in 1972. But by the end, I had begun to learn how I myself could be more effective. I was learning that the best way to help was to influence the movements that embody the principles you believe in, and to use those movements to back the candidates who will deliver on those principles.

Voting is not the most we can do to assert our influence, but it is certainly the least. There are less than 100 days until Election Day. Do you know about vote by mail? Find all the tools you need to request a #VoteByMail ballot and to encourage others to help make every last vote count @votesaveamerica.

Gloria Steinem - 25.4K Likes - In 1996, I delivered a speech at Salisbury State University about the power that women voters effect political change. I still think the words I wrote back then are true: Progress lies in the direction we haven’t been. Vice President Kamala Harris says it every day on the campaign trail. We’re not going back!

I am so grateful for the genius of Julie Taymor and all who brought this film to life. I hope this story - the story of a movement that grew by a groundswell of anger and hope - reminds us that change comes from telling the truth and knowing that you're not fighting alone.

Gloria Steinem - 24.4K Likes - Democracy exists when everyone has the freedom to make decisions about their own bodies.

Here in New York, we have the chance to permanently protect our reproductive freedom in this state, including the right to abortion, by voting YES on Prop 1!

Whether you are voting early or heading to the polls on November 5th, make sure you commit to vote YES on Prop 1. We’re not going back!

Gloria Steinem - 24.1K Likes - The reader letters that I get in response to books and articles mean so much to me. To know I’ve had some impact, or offered some helpfulness in someone’s life - I treasure those responses. So, I thank YOU, K.M. for the kind words that keep me going.

Revolution from Within has stayed in print for so long, I think, because the idea of self-esteem is so basic. Valuing the unique self within each of us is the source of democracy and rebelling against injustice. A new paperback edition is out today. Available through @littlebrown, @mcnallyjackson and more.
