10. I was privileged to hear Gloria speak about ten years ago.

The auditorium was packed. Not one empty seat. I was mesmerized at how vivacious she still was. Now it's hard for me to believe that she's 85.

I've been a lifelong feminist since I was about 16, and she was always one of my idols. I still remember buying the very first issue of Ms. magazine.

We must always remember that many courageous women have been fighting for women's rights for generations.

Younger women must keep the fight alive! Resist and persist!
