Ep 129 — History of Feminist Literature

Just as the title states! After two motherlode history episodes, we're doing an all media episode! Shannon walks us through the history of feminist literature from the earliest surviving scraps of parchment to a recent 2022 best-seller about women turning into dragons! Join us to learn about everything in between! After that we discuss a dam removal project that's showing great promise as an environmental remediation project.
