The Waves: What is a Feminist, Really?

On this week’s episode of The Waves, we say goodbye by
contemplating a key word of the podcast - feminism. Slate senior
producer Cheyna Roth and original Waves host June Thomas discuss
what feminism means, the historical problems with the word, who
should get to call themselves feminist, and so much more.
