Caption : 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.

Caption : 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 : 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.

Caption : When Julie Taymor called to say she would like to option my book, “My Life on the Road,” I just said yes, you can do anything you want. I think she is the great filmmaker of our time, the rare person about whom I hear myself saying the word genius. Have you seen “Across the Universe” or “Frida”? I rest my case. However, I didn’t have a clue how she could make a movie out of a book that covers at least eight decades and two continents. It is as intimate as my story of having an abortion, and as public as two Marches on Washington a half century apart. I didn’t know – but I just had faith. She has done this by emotional connections and genius visuals. My favorite is a Greyhound Bus through time. Different people – and different ages of the same person, me included – sit next to each other and talk to each other. They also see different places, faces and highways out of the window. I have faith in this movie because sharing our stories is the most ancient and true way of learning – we haven’t been sitting around campfires for millennia for nothing – and I hope this will entice you into sharing yours in this Talking Circle. Even the Internet is a giant campfire. At its best, it is teaching us that we are all passengers on Space Ship Earth. COVID19 is making us feel an intimacy out of shared suffering, and we are learning that Earth is our shared Mother — as Alice Walker says, “Her blue body, everything we know.” There’s another reason I’m glad that this movie is out there, due to the creative financial forces behind it, any money it makes will support girls and women around the world. #TheGloriasMovie – available for purchase and included with Prime video on September 30.

Caption : 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.”

Caption : 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

Caption : 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.

Caption : 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.

Caption : 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.

Caption : 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.

Caption : 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.

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.

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.

Caption : 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.

Caption : As a little girl, books were my escape. I didn’t attend school until I was 10, so I would read anything I could get my hands on from the local library. Now at 88, I’ve achieved my dream of having a library ladder and shelves filled with books that I love, sorted by categories like “Women’s History” and “Written by Friends.” That’s why this creative project, a Bookscape photograph of my bookshelves, is truly a project of the heart. In this age of Zooming, I’ve noticed that most people are seen in front of their bookcases, and we peer around to see what books we might learn from. I hope even one of the books on my shelves piques your curiosity. The artist Max-Steven Grossman photographed the bookshelves in my home and created this work of art, and in partnership with @spondergallery launched it at Art Miami Context. It is for sale now and proceeds are generously being donated to Gloria’s Foundation, which will preserve my home and these bookshelves for future generations of activists. The link for more details is in my bio.

Caption : The closest my family had to a family business was jewelry. My sister was a gemologist and my father sold antiques, including jewelry. When I spent time with the artist @jillplatner filming #Gutsy, I got to return to that tradition. As a New Yorker, rather than changing clothes, I change belts and jewelry, so jewelry has been deeply personal to me. At eight-eight, I’m glad to add a job as jewelry designer, especially because it can now benefit a good cause: access to safe and legal abortion in states where women might otherwise not find this basic human right to reproductive freedom @plannedparenthood.

Caption : I still don’t know how I got to be this old! Today I turn 88 and about this time 50 years ago @ms_magazine was born. When I was 38 years old, I was sitting in a makeshift office with friends and co-conspirators, working to create a magazine, and loving every minute of it. Yet had we all known how hard it was to start a magazine, I’m not sure we would have. I was just beginning what would become a life-long journey in activism, but I had been making a go of a career as a political journalist for over a decade. In honor of my 88th birthday and in celebration of 50 years of Ms. magazine, my team has made an exhibit with @googleartsandculture chronicling my writing journey. And since my favorite part of the magazine was always hearing from the readers, if you have a story about how Ms. magazine inspired or impacted you, you can share it with me through a form at the end of the exhibit.

Caption : One of my most cherished possessions is a soccer ball the US Women’s National Team signed and gave to me last year. Now, add to that Megan Rapinoe’s new book, One Life. I even managed to sneak onto one of the pages! When I first met Megan, I was so knocked out by how she just knows physically what she can do, that she’s good at it, that she can prove it, and that she’s not apologizing. It’s no surprise that her words are just as exhilarating as she is. Books like Megan’s are a lifeline in this time of isolation. Where you buy them matters. I love McNally Jackson bookstore. One Life is in their window on Prince Street. Consider a trip (online or in person) to @mcnallyjackson next time you are looking for something new to read – or to whichever independent bookstore you love.

After she was helped to stay in school thanks to @CAMFED support she is repaying the favor by supporting several children with their school fees. But more than the tangible work Alice does to make a difference, it’s her transformative spirit that gives me hope.

Caption : My paternal grandmother, Pauline Perlmutter Steinem, was the first woman to be elected to the Toledo School Board — and perhaps the first Jewish woman elected to any public office in the United States, even before women could vote nationally. She ran on a coalition ticket with the Socialists and the Anarchists, and got elected by organizing women to go to vote together. Women were kept away from the polls by gangs of mens and boys who would harass them if they came to vote. So she organized women to go in a group. But I didn’t know any of this until a feminist historian wrote a monograph about her. What survived as admirable in the family history was that she was a great cook, that she had four sons, that she kept a kosher table, that she was an educator. I didn’t hear about the more rebellious parts. I am thinking of her today, and the work yet to be done.

Though the huge majority of Americans and Texans believe that reproductive decisions should be made by women and our physicians, not by politicians, only a turn-out at the polls in the upcoming elections can bring back democracy – including the representation of Texas in the U.S. Senate. Meet some of the women banding together to ensure reproductive rights and access to healthcare, protect the rights of DACA recipients, and to end the cruelty of family separation at the border. Together, you and I can help them flip the Texas House and a U.S. Senate seat Democratic at last on November 3rd. I am proud to support each and every one of them. You will be, too. @akilahbacy – an attorney and Spelman College graduate who spends her free time serving as a pro-bono immigration attorney for children seeking asylum in the United States, mentoring in her local school district, teaching adult literacy, ESL, and legal rights classes in the West Houston community, and as a Sunday school teacher. @kekefortexas – A veteran and community leader passionate about helping young women raised in low income neighborhoods to seize their dreams and rise above their circumstances. @celinafortexas – A journalist and nonprofit founder focused on expanding Medicaid and equitably and fully funding schools and teachers while supporting family businesses. @sarah.demerchantforstaterep26 – A former CTO advocating for equal pay and fighting for more investment in prevention, rehabilitation and fairness in the judicial system. @mjfortexas – A combat veteran and working mom aiming to unseat Senator John Cornyn.

Caption : Though this New York Times headline is from January 10, 1993, it remains true today. Last week I met Dr. Adva Gutman-Tirosh, an orthopedic surgeon, whose sister, Tamar, was recently murdered. A sobering truth in these and all times of war: rape continues to be used as a weapon of war. Adva shared with me that when she finally saw photos of her late sister, her first thought was, “At least her pants are on.” Those are and have been the realities of war, but they don’t have to be.

As a frequent traveler, I have noted that baggage is biography; we are what we carry. I wrote an essay on this topic, but never found a home for it.

Caption : How lucky for me that in this moment that we need to organize like never before, I had already planned a long overdue Talking Circle with @chasinggarza who has been organizing since she was a teen getting her middle school health center to carry contraception long before she recognized that as a political act. Her leadership has given us #BlackLivesMatter and the @blklivesmatter Global Network, @Supermajority, @blackfutureslab and many other movement builders that expand our notions of what organizing might look like. Take her advice. “See the forest through the trees.” As I have said and continue to say, “F*CK them.” We are going to do what we have to do, as we always do. If you want to know how we have been through this before and survived, the link in bio. Thank you to @masterclass for making this a free resource.

Caption : Congresswoman Patricia Schroeder’s witty ability to make complex issues understandable was a model for other candidates, from dubbing Reagan “the Teflon President” to giving advice such as, “You can’t wring your hands and roll up your sleeves at the same time — pick one.” When contributions failed to reach $1 million in her 1988 presidential campaign, however, she withdrew in a tearful speech that got almost as much publicity as her whole campaign; a forerunner of the attention that Hillary Clinton would get for merely tearing up. Schroeder was seen as too emotional, and Clinton was seen as manipulative. Still, from what I observed as I traveled the country, Schroeder had introduced humor and humanity into a presidential campaign, and that helped other women to imagine themselves in politics. Women’s lives, and all of our lives in this country, are better for having been touched by Patricia’s courage and leadership. Photo credit: Duane Howell/The Denver Post

Caption : Every child in the United States has the right to a free public education. Delivering on that promise – which is enshrined in the Constitution – isn’t possible unless teachers are paid a living wage. Yet in Arizona, a Republican state legislature has systematically ignored the basic needs of teachers by severely under-funding the state’s education system. Just to survive, teachers are forced to take roommates and second and third jobs – and to march in the streets to make these conditions heard. Meanwhile, shootings are the leading cause of death for young people in Arizona, yet the state legislature continues to be owned by the gun lobby. In reality, this moment of economic hardship would be the perfect time to offer a little money to everyone who turns in a gun, and then to melt those guns down into playground equipment or anything that would actually benefit children. Remember, no other democracy in the world worships or allows guns as we do. Now, Arizona has a chance to become a safer and more livable state because these candidates are running to represent you with empathy, courage, and action. @coral4az The Mayor of Flagstaff and a third generation Arizonan fighting restore education funding, advocate for small businesses, and empower local communities to drive policy decisions. @frenchforaz A retired U.S. Army Colonel, medevac helicopter pilot, and registered nurse advocating for government accountability, affordable healthcare, sustainable jobs, and fair wages for educators. @ajforarizona A naturalized U.S. citizen and small business owner passionate about giving others the same opportunities he received by funding and reforming the public school system, protecting family-owned businesses, and expanding voting rights and health care access. @captmarkkelly An astronaut, engineer, and former U.S. Navy captain (and husband to the incredible Gabby Giffords) dedicated to women’s rights, veteran protections, and common sense gun laws. He is running to unseat Martha McSally.

Caption : Ninety years ago, on March 25, 1934, Gloria Steinem was born. Her parents celebrated with this special birth announcement. Today, we have more reason to celebrate: the birth of Gloria’s Foundation. Gloria’s Foundation has been established to preserve Gloria Steinem’s personal archive — which offers a window into countless individuals and organizations who have been central to movements for equal rights and justice, and Gloria’s apartment — which has long been a home base for radical community care, birthplace for ideas and living center of the feminist movement. As this one document shows, there are many gems in this collection and we look forward to sharing them — and we also look forward to you sharing your memories. Join us in celebrating Gloria Steinem’s 90th year, and the birth of Gloria’s Foundation! For more information, head to the link in our bio.

Caption : As Election Day approaches, I am reflecting on past campaigns that have inspired me. Not all of them were successful. One near-win in particular that has stayed with me is that of Lynn Yeakel’s 1992 run against Senator Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, who had been the most bombastic and condescending member of the Judiciary Committee during the Clarence Thomas confirmation – and the one who accused Anita Hill of “flat-out perjury.” Yeakel, a community leader from Philadelphia who had never been elected to anything, was watching this abuse of power on television, as were millions of others, when she decided to take Specter on. As she began to surpass him in the polls, he became just as vicious toward Yeakel as he had been toward Anita Hill. When he couldn’t find anything to accuse his opponent of except being new to politics, he found fault with her husband, her father and her minister, thus conveying the idea that she was controlled by them. Yeakel fought back with facts and good humor. Though he was able to outspend her by two-to-one, she ended up with 47 percent of the vote to his 49 percent, the balance going to a third party candidate. It wasn’t the result we wanted, but Yeakel, a virtual unknown, had come from nowhere, and almost beat a powerful sitting Senator. This year, there are so many candidates who embody the same spirit and determination. But the margins are still thin. Your vote can make all the difference.

Caption : I have long believed that empathy is the most radical of human emotions. Thanks to MasterClass for pushing that thinking and creating community around it. This isn’t a paid promotion, just a deep belief that when good people come together good things can come from that – plus it gave me an excuse to connect with old friends and meet new ones to discuss feminism’s long road. @adriennemareebrown @amandangocnguyen @tinatchen

Caption : Thinking about Octavia Butler today as others celebrate her life. She often pointed out what she wrote was neither science nor fiction; because “All struggles are essentially power struggles. Who will rule? Who will lead? Who will define, refine, confine, design?” She was playing out our very real possibilities as humans. Even though she is no longer with us, I think she can help each of us do the same.

Caption : My memories of Ohio lead me back, not just to my childhood, but also to the Adena and Hopewell mounds – Native wisdom reflected in the landscape. The indigenous and original cultures of this land teach us that there was a time that the paradigm of human organization had been a circle, not a hierarchy. This idea – that we are linked, not ranked – remains at the core of true democracy. We simply need to remember. My fellow Ohioans, I encourage you to remember when you vote. Look for the candidates who dedicate themselves to the good of all people and link us together in our power. @desireetims – an accomplished legislative staffer advocating for accessible healthcare – including safe and legal abortion – and working to implement universal preschool and protections for working families. @leronda_jackson – a business owner and social justice advocate fighting for affordable healthcare, women’s rights, and environmental protections and clean energy incentives. @ohiohouseoneill – an environmental lawyer advocating for police reform, a living wage, and clean water. @jarrellsforus (Facebook) – a Cleveland native and former Ohio Legislative Service Commission Fellow fighting to tackle homelessness, increase the minimum wage, and expand early childhood education opportunities. @crystallett2020 – a fierce proponent of pay equity, affordable health and child care, and common sense gun safety legislation.
