This New Book Profiles Incredible Women You've Probably Never Heard Of
A lot of women’s history remains untold, distorted, or fragmented. There are so many women who have had a huge impact on the world, but who the majority of people know nothing about. To reclaim these stories, Anita Sarkeesian and Ebony Adams wrote a book called History vs. Women, which profiles 25 remarkable women throughout history. They are rebels, rulers, scientists, artists, warriors and villains. VICE's Executive Editor Dory Carr-Harris spoke with both authors on this episode of The Vice Guide to Right Now. Hosted on Acast.
