Hood Feminism | Author Mikki Kendall and Writer/Editor Michi Trota Talk Truth

Hood Feminism Author Mikki Kendall talks truth with Writer/Editor Michi Trota about how feminism has neglected to address certain basic issues. Beginning with the right to vote, the feminist movement has since advocated for reforms related to equal pay, maternity leave, domestic and sexual violence among other major issues. But the most basic needs – such as food, education, and health care – have not been part of the feminist conversation. Enjoy this lively and informative conversation between two good friends.
