Today we honor the life and legacy of Gloria Steinem, a trailblazing journalist, activist, and co-founder of Ms. Magazine, who passed away this week at age 92.
For more than half a century, Steinem fought for reproductive freedom, workplace equality, and an end to domestic violence — some of the very issues at the heart of our mission here at the Women's Resource Center of Alamance County. Her belief that "the truth will set you free, but first it will p**s you off" reminds us that discomfort is often the beginning of change.
Her work made space for organizations like ours to exist and for the women we serve every day to imagine bigger futures for themselves. We carry that legacy forward.
Rest in power, Gloria. 💜
