Gloria Steinem is more than the sum of her parts -- a writer, lecturer, political activist, and feminist, whose intersectional work continues to have extraordinary impacts on America and the world.
Among her landmark achievements, she co-founded Ms. magazine and the Ms. Foundation for Women, the Women's Media Center, the Women's Action Alliance, the National Women's Political Caucus, and Choice USA. Her numerous honors include the Presidential Medal of Freedom, awarded by President Barack Obama.
At 88, her lifetime of service personifies living history; however, she remains focused on the future - the elimination of sexism, racism, and discrimination of all kinds.
She joins the LEADing Justice podcast to discuss her remarkable “life on the road.”

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
