The reporting
Gloria Steinem, the journalist and feminist activist who co-founded Ms. Magazine and became a central figure in the U.S. women’s liberation movement, died Wednesday at her New York City home at 92. Her foundation announced the death Thursday, saying she died peacefully surrounded by loved ones; no cause was given. The foundation said her Upper East Side brownstone on East 73rd Street will become a permanent space for organizing and activism. Public figures including Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, Oprah Winfrey and Meghan Markle paid tribute.
Analysis & opinion
Transformative feminist legacyMostly Left
Gloria Steinem profoundly improved women’s lives and helped make feminism a central force in modern American politics. Her leadership, solidarity, and gift for bringing women together showed generations that collective action could change the world.
Damaging radical legacyMostly Right
Gloria Steinem’s legacy should not be celebrated as liberating or heroic. Her feminism was a radical left-wing project that harmed women, attacked traditional family life, and promoted abortion-centered politics.
