For women to be free, they must be free to be women.
The struggle for women's rights has been long and hard fought. The goal was freedom. But what does freedom mean and how has it changed from the time of the 19th century feminists through various women's movements? Lawyer and author Erika Bachiochi joins Gloria to clarify concepts and shine a light on the early feminists who fought for more than an abstract, autonomous individualism–a notion created by men. From voting to sex, women can only be free when they are free to be women.
