Honoring 'The Day Iceland Stood Still' 

According to the World Economic Forum, we're still 123 years away from full equality for women. So it's critical to remember the moments history was made. On this day, 50 years ago, 90 percent of the women in Iceland went on strike. Their "women's day off" changed the country forever. It's now the subject of a new documentary called "The Day Iceland Stood Still." To mark this day, Christiane spoke to the film's director Pamela Hogan, and the President of Iceland, Halla Tómasdóttir. Also on today's show: author Gayle Young ("Update: Reporting from an Ancient Land"); author Cory Doctorow ("Enshittification") Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
