Willy sat down for an in-person interview with legendary feminist activist Gloria Steinem. She is best known as a pioneer of the women’s rights movement in the 1970s and has dedicated her life to promoting gender equality and social justice.
She and Willy discussed anecdotes from her humble upbringing, the importance of bodily autonomy, major milestones of her life and career, the evolution of gender roles, what she’d tell her twenty-year-old self, and so much more.
